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.

About This Artwork

This work translates a piano étude into visual form within the Synesthetic Explorations collection. The piece maps the A Minor M7 minor major seventh chord through color relationships that correspond to specific musical pitches and octave registers. The approach uses cycle of fifths mapping to create harmonic connections between visual and auditory elements.

Gray tones dominate the composition, appearing across multiple octave ranges from very dark charcoal through silver and steel gray. Yellow-orange goldenrod occupies substantial areas alongside bright yellow-green and wheat tones. A grayish purple provides contrast while small ochre and cadet blue accents add harmonic complexity. The acrylic paint creates clean color boundaries with geometric forms that organize the chord voicing across the paper surface.

The work measures 21.0 × 30.0 cm on paper and weighs 0.1 kg. Part of the Synesthetic Explorations collection, it bears certificate of authenticity number 20260305-0011 with the artist's signature on the back. The piece draws inspiration from piano studies and demonstrates contemporary approaches to chromesthetic translation.
