postmodernist
A postmodernist is a person who subscribes to or promotes the ideas and concepts of postmodernism, a movement in the arts, architecture, and criticism that developed in the mid to late 20th century. Postmodernism generally represents a departure from modernism and is characterized by the self-conscious use of earlier styles and conventions, a mixing of different artistic styles and media, and a general distrust of theories about the nature of reality or truth, often challenging notions of objectivity, universal truth, originality, and the concept of a single, unified narrative. In essence, postmodernism often emphasizes the subjective and relative nature of reality and truth.
