Arnaud Quercy is a Parisian artist working across painting, music, and sculpture. His practice is grounded in Ideamorphism — the principle that a work of art does not carry meaning, but triggers it. Each piece is engineered to diffract differently through each person who encounters it.
He creates and exhibits at Art Quam Anima, his gallery-atelier at 28 rue du Dragon, Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Paris.

Bb Major
About This Artwork
This work explores the visual translation of a Bb Major triad through chromesthetic mapping, part of the Synesthetic Explorations collection. The painting transforms the chord's fundamental tones — Bb, D, and F — into their corresponding color equivalents, creating a spread voicing that opens across the canvas in five distinct registers.
Red tones dominate the composition, with brown and very dark red creating the foundational presence. Orange chocolate provides bright contrast in the middle register, while violet dusty mauve appears as a high accent. The colors organize into distinct geometric forms against a divided field, with warm orange filling the upper portion and deep red-violet tones anchoring the lower space.
The acrylic on canvas measures 24.0 × 30.0 cm and weighs minimal for wall mounting. Certificate of authenticity number 20240602-0107 accompanies the work, with the artist's signature located on the front right. The piece demonstrates the systematic approach to translating musical harmony into visual form through established chromesthetic correspondences.
