The battle between the mundane and the absurd is also an artistic expression - the emphasis of elements of life until they are conflated beyond their initial meaning, in the same way a picture captures a singular moment in time removed from its meaning, the absurd can capture a single emotion or facet of being in a single instance and preserve it - be it a societal idea, a system of belief, what have you. If memes are the DNA of society, then the absurd is the RNA of memes, it is the constitutent components which goes into creating these distilled moments of social conciousness and mood, a testiment that the past was once living, too. This also lends the person who embodies this absurdism to artistry, having the will to capture these kinds of moments in different forms so they can be appreciated in the future.
