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 explores the visual translation of musical harmony through chromesthetic mapping, part of the Synesthetic Explorations collection. The F# minor triad becomes visible through color relationships that mirror the chord's tonal structure. The piece examines how musical intervals can create spatial harmonies when translated from auditory to visual perception.
Green tones dominate the composition, appearing across multiple registers from deep teal to bright aquamarine, representing the F# root note in various octaves. Yellow-orange accents provide harmonic contrast, corresponding to the A natural third of the minor triad. The geometric forms create a vertical arrangement that echoes the spread voicing of the original chord, with darker values anchoring the bass register and lighter tones rising toward the treble.
The acrylic painting measures 24.0 × 30.0 cm on canvas, executed in 2024 as part of Quercy's systematic investigation into sound-color correspondence. Certificate of authenticity number 20240602-0098 accompanies the work, with the artist's signature located on the front right. The compact format concentrates the harmonic relationships into an intimate viewing experience that parallels the focused nature of a piano étude.
