About This Artwork

Silver tones dominate the composition, with warm khaki and light gray creating substantial presence throughout the surface. Blue-gray and green areas provide harmonic support, while yellow-green forms appear in focused sections. Dark brown and peru accent colors punctuate the arrangement, creating rhythmic emphasis within the overall tonal structure.
The work measures 10.0 × 15.0 cm on paper, signed bottom right with certificate of authenticity number 20250125-0052.

The piece belongs to the Synesthetic Explorations collection, which examines the translation of musical structures into visual form through consistent chromesthetic mapping.
