Post Modernist


As digital artists the majority of what we do falls into the post modernist category of work simply because of the medium and how we are more team oriented than any of the other art forms. My BFA project falls under the category of post modernism because it is not an object. My project is entirely web based and does not exist in the world in a physical capacity. It is coding on a web page that the user interacts with. Also, because the user interacts with it is another aspect of how it is post modernist. In modernist ideology it is a one way connection between the art and the viewer. The art says something to the viewer, or it doesn't, and the viewer moves on. In my piece I force the viewer to become a user of the art and to interact with it in order to get the full story and to see the connection between the two pieces.
