Winter Opus by Heather Guidero

Heather Guidero's jewelry consists of a series of simple geometric shapes. She works with these shapes to explore volume, movement, and pattern. The use of thin sheet metal allows her to incorporate these shapes into larger forms that are lightweight, yet have a presence of their own on the body. Each piece as it is worn produces sound -- the gentle noise of metal rings and discs sliding and clinking as the wearer goes about her daily routine. In this way, each piece is transformed into a personal, interactive sculpture.
