What type of artwork is rooted in religious and philosophical symbolism and is meant to reflect the inner feelings and energies of the viewer?

  1. Pop Art

  2. Op Art

  3. Kintsugi

  4. Zen Art

The correct answer is: Zen Art

Zen Art is the correct answer because it is deeply connected to Buddhism and emphasizes meditation and mindfulness, often representing the emptiness and infinite potential of the mind. Pop Art (A) and Op Art (B) are both more focused on visual appeal and use of bold colors and geometric forms, rather than religious and philosophical symbolism. Kintsugi (C) is a Japanese art form that involves repairing broken pottery with gold or silver, and while it does have philosophical significance, it does not necessarily reflect the inner feelings of the viewer.
