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
Dusk on the Ionian Sea explores the quiet transition between day and night through abstract watercolor forms. Part of the Mediterranean Echoes collection, this work translates coastal twilight into geometric shapes and flowing lines that suggest both landscape and pure abstraction.
Yellow-green tones dominate the composition, creating a luminous backdrop that evokes evening light on water. These primary colors blend with darker blue-violet areas that anchor the lower portion, while green accents provide structural elements throughout. The watercolor technique allows colors to flow and merge naturally, creating soft transitions between defined geometric forms and organic shapes. Black linear elements traverse the composition vertically and horizontally, organizing the color areas into a balanced arrangement that suggests both architectural forms and natural horizons.
The work measures 15 × 21 cm on paper, making it part of Quercy's small-format exploration of Mediterranean themes. Certificate of authenticity number 20241205-0295 accompanies this 2024 creation. The compact scale concentrates the visual impact while maintaining the expansive feeling of coastal evening light that characterizes the Mediterranean Echoes series.
