Eb minor
About This Artwork
This work explores the visual translation of an Eb minor chord through chromesthetic mapping, part of the Synesthetic Explorations collection. The piece investigates how musical harmony can be rendered in color relationships, converting the tonal structure of Eb minor into a geometric composition. The work functions as both musical analysis and visual study.
Violet tones dominate the composition, appearing in multiple shades that correspond to the Bb notes in different octaves. Yellow-green areas create substantial presence throughout the surface, representing the F# component of the chord. Black anchors the lower register as the Eb root, while a red-violet accent provides the harmonic tension. The colors organize into distinct geometric zones, with sharp transitions between tonal areas creating clear harmonic boundaries.
The work measures 10.0 × 15.0 cm and weighs minimal as an acrylic on paper study. This compact format suits the focused nature of a single chord investigation. The piece carries certificate number 20240615-0128 and bears the artist's signature in the bottom right corner. Created in 2024, the work represents one exploration within the broader Synesthetic Explorations series examining the visual properties of musical structures.
