A Major

About This Artwork

This work translates the A Major triad into visual form through chromesthetic mapping, where musical pitches correspond to specific colors. Part of the Synesthetic Explorations collection, the piece transforms the chord's harmonic relationships into a geometric composition that makes sound visible through color theory.

Orange tones dominate the composition, with chocolate and burnt sienna creating substantial presence across the surface. Yellow appears throughout the middle areas, while red-orange silver provides contrast in the upper regions. Blue-green and blue-violet accent colors create small but crucial points of harmonic tension, with yellow-orange tan filling connecting spaces between the major color blocks.

The acrylic on wood panel measures 21.0 × 30.0 × 0.3 cm, executed in 2024 as part of Quercy's systematic exploration of music-to-color translation. The work carries certificate of authenticity number 20241201-0238, with the artist's signature positioned according to the composition's visual balance. This compact format allows the chromesthetic relationships to function as both musical notation and abstract painting.
