Marge Rendell (b. 1998, Cincinnati, OH) is a New York City based painter whose work explores digital culture, humor, and impermanence. She transforms ephemeral online content into paintings by sourcing imagery from places like eBay, MySpace banner creators, and keyboard carat hearts. Her practice examines how irony, tone, and internet subcultures shape the way we connect, cope, and communicate today.
