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
Dragon Breeder explores mythological narrative through contemporary ceramic sculpture, forming part of the Spells and Magic collection. The work transforms the ancient archetype of dragon breeding into a tangible three-dimensional form that captures both the mystery and ambition of its legendary subject matter.
The sculpture presents a dynamic composition of geometric forms in warm earth tones. Angular ceramic elements rise vertically from a metal support base, creating sharp triangular planes that intersect and overlap. The fired clay surface displays subtle textural variations where the ceramic particles have fused during the firing process. The forms suggest both architectural precision and organic growth, with each angular segment positioned to create visual tension and movement.
The piece measures thirty-four by sixteen by twelve centimeters and weighs approximately one and four-tenths kilograms. The ceramic elements rest on a metal support that provides structural stability while maintaining the sculpture's visual lightness. Created in France during 2024, the work carries certificate of authenticity number 20240705-0155 and bears the artist's signature below the main sculptural elements.
