a. a three - dimensional form of art that is meant to be seen from all sides.
b. a sculpture that has a relationship with its surrounding and religious significance.
c. a type of sculpture that contains objects embedded in a ground surface.
d. a form of site specific work, which is designed to affect the way a space is experienced.

please select the best answer from the choices provided

a
b
c
d

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• Option a: A three - dimensional form meant to be seen from all sides is a free - standing (in - the - round) sculpture, not a relief sculpture.
• Option b: Relief sculptures don't necessarily have a focus on religious significance or just a relationship with surroundings in this specific way.
• Option c: Relief sculpture involves objects (figures, etc.) that are embedded or attached to a ground (background) surface, with varying degrees of projection from the surface. This matches the definition of a relief sculpture.
• Option d: Site - specific work affecting space experience is more about installation art or site - specific sculptures in a broader sense, not the core definition of relief sculpture.

Answer:

C. a type of sculpture that contains objects embedded in a ground surface.
