Composition is the layout of a relief work. It refers to the organic combination of artistic images within a specific plane range (in the relief picture), so that they can form an organizational structure that conforms to the artistic rules, thus creating a complete relief art work.

The composition is indispensable to the creation of reliefs, just like the composition is indispensable to the composition. "Each art form has its own unique laws and principles. For those who are engaged in artistic creation, only when they are very proficient in the artistic laws they are engaged in can they gallop in the creative practice", so as to be confident. Composition is a process of thinking as well as an organizational process. It is a process of achieving the desired effect through a series of comprehensive design and performance. Compared with other art forms such as sculpture, relief design pays more attention to the formal beauty of composition. Generally, it is based on the content, theme or environment of the work and the style and function needs of the attached building subject, The body rhythm, rhythm and artistic atmosphere produced by the large dynamic line and simple and bright image sense are used to explain the theme and show the aesthetic effect of pleasing eyes and refreshing spirit.

Since different dynamic lines bring different psychological hints and feelings to the audience, they should be used reasonably according to needs. They are usually summarized into large geometric shapes. For example, the pyramid shaped positive triangle composition reflects that the formal language brings people a psychological feeling of stability, loftiness, solemnity and stability; On the contrary, the inverted triangle gives people psychological hints of danger, turbulence and insecurity; The round composition gives people a complete, vivid and perfect experience; The square composition gives people a sense of decency and preciseness. Of course, these are common general rules in the composition design of reliefs. A more reasonable and appropriate design should also be specifically analyzed according to the specific situation, and a series of comprehensive factors such as theme, function and external environment should be fully considered, and the beauty of form and the connotation of expression should be combined to achieve a high degree of unity of content and form.
