You could work on a WP_Query of posts of your category and then use get_attached_media to find the media of each one of the posts found. You could do a more specific query there, it’s up to you!
// WP_Query arguments
$args = array(
'category_name' => 'name_of_your_category',
);
// The Query
$query = new WP_Query( $args );
// The Loop
if ( $query->have_posts() ) {
while ( $query->have_posts() ) {
$query->the_post();
// Adds all the media attached to each post found in the query
// This is just an example of how you could use it!
array_push( $your_array, get_attached_media( 'image', get_the_ID() ) );
}
} else {
// no posts found
}
// Restore original Post Data
wp_reset_postdata();
