Created by Mexican artist Raúl Esparza Sanchez, the elaborate ceramic panels that compose this mural arrived in South Texas by way of the California Museum of Science and Industry. Beginning with the “Origins of Ideas, Life and the Universe,” the panels depict Pre-Hispanic cultures, the Mayan calendar, the arrival of the Spanish, and Mexico’s independence from Spain.
