A dream of society as flawless as diamond II

This work was inspired by James Lovelock's theory of Gaia and draws on the concept that all life is interconnected. Each figure is connected via is arms and legs to four other figures, thus forming a tetrahedral lattice such as the one formed in Diamond by the connection of each carbon atom to four others. This is a second version of this idea, where I have extended the Tetrahedral lattice further to produce a larger piece. It has also drawn out more interesting observations on the geometry of the lattice, from some angles the rythmic pattern of the figures gives the impression of waves travelling through the work.
