The spiritual emptiness in the modern era caused a kind of return to spiritual life and communication between different parts of life. "Spiritual health" was proposed as the fourth dimension of health when other dimensions were not considered sufficient in meeting human needs. "Art" can be regarded as one of the most influential factors in restoring spiritual health. Iranian-Islamic art has always produced artworks about spirituality by showing manifestations of the higher world and an image of heaven. It has provided a necessary part of the spiritual health of society. This study aimed to assess the relationship between art and spiritual health.

This research was carried out in a library manner by referring to studies related to art and spiritual health, and a descriptive-analytical method was used.
