F Minor - Variations 19 — Acrylic on Paper by Arnaud Quercy

About This Artwork

This work explores the visual translation of F minor harmony through chromesthetic mapping, where musical tones become color relationships. Part of the Synesthetic Explorations collection, the piece investigates how chord structures can be made visible through systematic color correspondence. The F minor triad appears as a resolved voicing spanning multiple octaves, creating harmonic relationships through visual means.

Salmon tones dominate the upper register, while blue-violet forms appear throughout the middle range in two distinct values. Orange and brown earth tones occupy substantial areas, creating warmth against the cooler purple-blue passages. Bright accent colors provide harmonic punctuation - steelblue, palevioletred, and bisque appearing as precise color notes. The acrylic medium allows for clean color separation while maintaining subtle textural variation across the paper surface.

The work measures 10.5 × 15.0 cm and weighs 0.1 kg, executed in acrylic on paper. Certificate of authenticity number 20251123-0113 accompanies the piece, with the artist's signature located bottom right.
