Steganart is the concatenation of the two words: "stega" and "art".
- "stega" takes its origins from the Greek etymology "steganos" which means "hidden", "cover", "roof".
- "art" takes its origins from the old French and has the Latin etymology "ars" or "artem" which may also be translated as "skill", "craft", "join", ...
Art is also the class of objects subject to subjective aesthetic criteria.
So, to resume, steganart is the class of artistic objects, drawings included, which might be understood differently but trivially when its hidden message(s) is (are) unencrypted.
The word "trivial" is important because otherwise "steganart" would just have the same meaning as "art".
