Modernism and fragmentation

The aim of my dissertation, as the title indicates, is to determine the relationship between modernism and fragmentation. The objective, however, is twofold. In addition to the argument through which I explicate the neglected discussion of the connection between modernism and fragmentation, this paper reveals the thought processes and artistic influences crucial to my own development as a painter. The majority of artists I discuss have informed my practice stylistically as well as aesthetically. The thesis therefore serves not only as a theoretical discussion but also as a partial justification of my personal conceptions regarding my work, on which I will elaborate in appendix. This paper demonstrates that the resolution of all things depends upon the collection, selection, arrangement and rearrangement of fragments, including my painting and this paper itself / Master of Arts
