Art is a visual art created by artists using certain material materials and shaping techniques, possessing and occupying spatial forms. Therefore, art is also called plastic art, spatial art, visual art, and static art. An important feature of art is its plasticity. The images in art works are static. Through the representation of human figures or scenes, artists resolve the contradictions between the development of things, the changes in human psychology, and the static artistic images. They choose typical moments from the chain of continuous development of moving things to clearly express, thus evoking the association and imagination of the audience. Therefore, "momentaneity" is another distinct feature of art in reflecting life.
