The correct answer is option 1, Bonsai. Bonsai is a Japanese art form that involves the artistic cultivation and miniaturization of trees. It is the practice of growing trees in shallow containers and carefully shaping them to resemble fully grown trees in nature. Bonsai trees are meticulously pruned and trained to create a realistic and harmonious representation of a larger tree. This art form requires patience, skill, and a deep understanding of horticulture. It is believed to have originated in China during the Tang dynasty and was later adopted and refined by the Japanese. Bonsai is highly regarded for its beauty, tranquility, and symbolism in Japanese culture. The other options mentioned are different art forms - Kirigami is the art of paper cutting, Origami is the art of paper folding, and Ikebana is the art of flower arrangement.
