G minor - Variation 1 — Acrylic on Paper by Arnaud Quercy

About This Artwork

This work explores the visual translation of G minor through chromesthetic mapping, part of the Synesthetic Explorations collection. The piece converts musical intervals into color relationships, creating a direct correspondence between harmonic structure and visual composition. The G minor chord appears through orange and yellow-green tones that occupy the primary visual space.

Orange dominates the composition, filling the background and geometric forms with warm intensity. Yellow-green areas create substantial presence through curved and angular shapes, while black and gray elements provide structural definition. The colors organize into distinct zones—curved green forms intersect with angular black shapes against the orange field, creating clear spatial divisions that reflect the chord's harmonic intervals.

The work measures 10.0 × 15.0 cm on paper, executed in acrylic with precise geometric construction. Certificate of authenticity number 20240615-0136 accompanies the piece, with the artist's signature located bottom right. The compact format concentrates the chromesthetic translation into an intimate study, allowing the color relationships to function as direct musical equivalents within the contained space.
