Shadow Exchange

Materials:
Sterling silver, marcasite, quartz, and handwoven antique silver cord details.

State:
Transmission / Concentration

Clear light and mineral shadow held in opposition.

Shadow Exchange brings quartz and marcasite into direct contrast, balancing crystalline transparency with darker metallic depth. Quartz captures and transmits light, while marcasite introduces a dense reflective surface that shifts between brilliance and shadow.

Sterling silver and handwoven antique silver cord extend this tension through the composition, creating a cool, textured framework around the stones. The result is a sculptural piece that explores opposition, exchange, and the movement of light across contrasting mineral states.
