Which term refers to an arrangement of various elements to create artistic patterns?

Collage
Montage
Symmetry
Asymmetry

The correct answer is: Montage

The term that specifically refers to an arrangement of various elements to create artistic patterns is "montage." Montage is a technique often used in visual arts, film, and photography where different images or elements are combined into a single composition. This process allows for the juxtaposition and layering of various components, which can convey a narrative or evoke specific emotions and themes. In contrast, while a collage shares similarities in that it brings together different materials, it more commonly refers to the combination of cut-out images or pieces of paper glued to a surface to create a new whole. Symmetry and asymmetry are terms related to balance within a composition but do not specifically denote the combination of different elements to form patterns like montage does.
