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 the D minor triad into its chromesthetic equivalent, exploring how musical harmony manifests through color relationships. Part of the Synesthetic Explorations collection, the piece examines the visual properties of a fundamental musical chord through direct color mapping.
Orange tones dominate the composition, appearing as chocolate and salmon hues that occupy substantial areas of the surface. Red-orange sections in russet and burnt sienna create contrasting zones, while a single red accent in indianred provides a sharp focal point. Gray areas anchor the lower register, establishing tonal depth across the vertical format.
The work measures 15.0 × 21.0 × 0.3 cm and weighs under 100 grams on wood panel support. Created in 2024 as the fourth variation in this harmonic research series, it carries certificate number 20241201-0278 with signature located bottom right. The piece sold to a private collector in Paris, France in January 2025.
