биланс
In art generally the principle whereby elements in a work (painting, sculpture, architecture, or other) are deployed to give an overall feeling of stability. Axial or radial arrangements of elements are one way to achieve a basic sense of balance, though more complex compositions are typical, and artists generally deploy disparate elements – whether of size, shape, color, value, definition, or psychological and narrative interest – with reference to an encompassing frame to achieve locally dynamic equilibrium that nonetheless tends toward a sense of wholeness and completion within an entire work.
