Module 6 Chapter 5 Design Revisited

Following Sian’s feedback, I have made more (lots!) slightly larger octahedra using several multiples of each photograph.  This time, I have sorted them by colour and joined with a stiffer wire that can support their weight so they can be raised up.   Some have been wrapped all round while others sit loosely in a ring.  I have been having a deal of trouble taking photos as the light is poor but using a flash or spotlights is causing reflections on the glossy paper, and changing the colours, but here is a selection in a variety of poses.  Each octohedron is about 5cm tall, a few of the original ones are smaller and I have left some of the thinner copper wire in place.  I think there about 40 altogether.

My goodness - there is so much work in them and loads of possibilities for arranging them. Do you see them in your sleep?!!

I like the colour organisation idea - gives another visual connection between the boxes. Must have taken you ages!

You must have a very high boredom threshold! These pieces remind me of Sian's piece she brought to Summer school,but in 3D.I like the way the size changes.
