Resilience — Acrylic on Linen Canvas by Arnaud Quercy

About This Artwork

Resilience explores what happens when organic forms meet controlled environments. Part of the Nature in the city collection, this work examines how humans attempt to master nature while giving it just enough space to exist without disruption. The painting addresses the tension between urban planning and natural growth.

Gray tones dominate the composition, creating a foundation of urban infrastructure across most of the surface. Green forms emerge throughout substantial areas, establishing organic presence within the controlled framework. A vertical blue element cuts through the center, connecting different zones of the composition. Small accents of yellow-green and golden tones provide bright contrast points, while warm orange and wheat tones appear in strategic locations.

The acrylic work measures 89.0 × 146.0 × 4.0 cm on linen canvas, creating a monumental vertical format. This piece belongs to Quercy's Nature in the city collection, examining urban-natural relationships. The work carries certificate of authenticity number 20240930-0206 and bears the artist's signature on the bottom right. The painting was acquired by a private collector in Paris, France.
