- Definition
A relief sculpture is like a picture that's carved into a flat surface, so parts of it stick out, but it's not a fully 3D object you can walk around. Think of a coin or a carving on a building where the design pops out from the background.
relief sculpture is a term used in Ontario’s Kindergarten to Grade 8 curriculum.
