Medium
Medium can refer to both the artistic category (such as painting, sculpture or printmaking) and the materials used (such as bronze, clay or oil paint) when creating an artwork.
In the realm of art, this term carries two main, slightly overlapping, and sometimes bewildering connotations. On one hand, it denotes painting, sculpture, drawing, and printmaking as different artistic categories, each representing a specific type of art. Simultaneously, it can describe the materials employed in crafting an artwork.
