What does objectivism mean?
A philosophical system that emphasizes individualism, reason, and the pursuit of one's own happiness, as advocated by Ayn Rand. It is a moral and epistemological system that holds that reality exists independently of human consciousness and that the individual's perception of reality is the only source of knowledge.
Example
"The artist's use of objectivism in her work was evident in the way she portrayed the individual's struggle for survival in a harsh environment."
