Eb minor M7 — Acrylic on Paper by Arnaud Quercy

About This Artwork

This work explores how musical harmony translates into visual color relationships. Part of the Synesthetic Explorations collection, it transforms a specific piano chord into a geometric composition that makes harmonic relationships visible through color mapping.

The composition balances violet tones with yellow-green areas across geometric forms. Violet colors dominate the surface, appearing in dusty mauve rectangles and blue-violet sections. Yellow-green seagreen provides contrast in angular shapes. Gray tones appear throughout in silver and darker slate areas. Small accent colors include blue-gray, orange, and yellow-orange touches that create harmonic complexity. The acrylic paint creates smooth color transitions between the geometric sections.

This square work measures 21.0 × 21.0 cm and weighs 0.1 kg on paper support. The painting translates the Eb minor M7 chord through cycle of fifth mapping, with each color representing specific musical pitches. The work carries certificate of authenticity number 20260305-0017 and bears the artist's signature at bottom right. Created in France as part of contemporary piano studies research.
