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 a Db Major chord through harmonic-chromatic mapping, part of the Harmonic Crossing collection. The piece transforms musical harmony into color relationships, creating a visual étude that makes audible chord structures visible through systematic color correspondence.
Blue-violet tones dominate the composition, appearing throughout substantial areas and establishing the primary harmonic foundation. Blue-green areas provide strong contrast while gray sections anchor the darker registers. Golden yellow accents emerge in specific zones, with subtle orange and yellow-green notes adding harmonic complexity to the overall color structure.
The work measures 10.5 × 15.0 cm and weighs 0.1 kg, executed in acrylic on paper. This is part of the Harmonic Crossing collection, which investigates the relationship between musical structures and visual perception. The piece bears certificate number 20251123-0094 with signature located at bottom right. The harmonic-chromatic approach maps specific pitches to corresponding colors, creating a direct translation between auditory and visual experience.
