Pearl Marden (b. 2002) is an artist and creative director whose work recontextualizes documentation and image-making. She explores the tension between the private and public self through themes of femininity, performance, and objecthood. Her practice investigates what we choose to hold onto and why, taking form across websites, print media, styling, performance, and graphic design.

Her most recent project, PEARLBAY, was a live performance in which she auctioned off her personal data in real time. Pearl is the creative director and head of design at Basta Magazine, and has collaborated with brands such as Lucilla Safdie and Zepherina. Pearl recently presented her own work and curated a show La Mama CULTUREHUB.
