An art that depends on time and live action is:

Answer Details

Performance art is an art form that depends on time and live action. It involves an artist (or group of artists) carrying out actions, movements, or rituals before an audience in real time. Unlike static visual arts, performance art unfolds over a duration - it has a beginning, a progression, and an end - and it cannot be fully captured by a single object or image.

Performance art may incorporate elements of theatre, dance, music, spoken word, and visual art, but it is distinguished by its emphasis on the live, temporal experience. The presence of the artist's body and actions in real time is central to the work.

Textile art produces physical fabric-based objects that exist independently of time. Graffiti is a form of visual art applied to surfaces (walls, buildings) that remains after the artist leaves. Still life painting is a static visual art depicting arrangements of inanimate objects - once completed, it exists as a fixed image on a surface. None of these three require live action or unfold in real time the way performance art does.
