three-dimensional art

Art with depth

Art that occupies physical space and can be viewed from multiple angles—sculpture, installation, ceramics, architecture.

Unlike painting or drawing, three-dimensional art has depth, volume, and mass.

The viewer's position changes the experience: Walking around the sculpture revealed new forms.

The term distinguishes spatial work from flat, two-dimensional media.
