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 representation of an Ab Major chord through chromesthetic translation, part of the Synesthetic Explorations collection. The composition translates a piano étude into color relationships, where the Ab Major triad appears as blue, orange, and blue-violet tones corresponding to the chord's harmonic structure.
Blue tones dominate the composition, occupying nearly half the surface through grayish purple and cadet blue areas. Orange elements provide substantial presence through steel gray and orangered sections, while blue-violet tones appear as grayish purple accents. The acrylic medium allows for clear color separation and defined geometric forms that mirror the chord's spread voicing across multiple octaves.
The work measures 21.0 × 30.0 cm and weighs 0.1 kg, created on paper with acrylic paint. This piece represents variation 13 within the Synesthetic Explorations series, exploring piano studies through cycle of fifth mapping. Certificate of authenticity number 20251123-0070 accompanies the work, with the artist's signature located bottom right.
