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.

F minor
About This Artwork
This work explores the visual translation of F minor harmony through chromesthetic mapping, part of the Synesthetic Explorations collection. The piece transforms a piano étude into color relationships, where each note of the F minor triad corresponds to specific hues based on the artist's synesthetic perception.
Light gray tones dominate the composition, establishing a neutral foundation across most of the surface. Yellow-tinted areas appear throughout substantial portions, creating warmth against cooler elements. Dark blue-violet forms occupy significant areas in geometric shapes, while deep red-black provides strong contrast in smaller sections. Orange accents emerge in concentrated areas, with bright blue creating focal points through circular and rectangular forms. The acrylic medium allows precise color boundaries while maintaining subtle variations within each tone family.
The work measures 21.0 × 30.0 cm on paper, with certificate of authenticity number 20240602-0092. The artist's signature appears on the front right. This variation represents the F minor triad through resolved harmonic voicing, where F, Ab, and C notes translate into the dominant color families present. The composition organizes these chromesthetic relationships into overlapping geometric forms that suggest musical structure made visible.
