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.

About This Artwork
This work translates a Bb minor chord into visual form through chromesthetic mapping, part of the Synesthetic Explorations collection. The composition explores how musical harmonies can become visible through color relationships, converting the Bb minor triad into a geometric arrangement of violet, red-violet, and blue-green tones.
Violet tones dominate the composition, appearing in multiple forms from deep charcoal to lighter mauve variations. Red-violet areas provide substantial presence in the lower portions, while blue-green accents appear as precise geometric elements. The colors organize into angular, interlocking shapes that suggest the spread voicing of the chord across different registers. Silver and steel gray areas create neutral zones that allow the chromesthetic colors to maintain their distinct relationships.
The work measures 15.0 × 21.0 × 0.3 cm on wood panel, executed in acrylic. Certificate of authenticity number 20241201-0267 documents the piece's completion in 2024. The compact vertical format concentrates the harmonic relationships into a contained space, with each color area corresponding to specific pitches in the Bb minor chord structure.
