The relief art murals are created with layered Styrofoam shapes laid in 5 ft. X 10 ft. mold forms to impress the design into the concrete panels as they are poured, and only a couple of dark contrast paint colors are applied after the walls are built. The separate concrete panels are like pieces to a puzzle, with the entire artwork revealed only after they're connected.
