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
Stand before this small painting and the city goes silent. It is twenty past two in the morning, and you are on the place des Petits-Pères, facing the basilica of Notre-Dame-des-Victoires. A near-black field swallows the square, broken only by a block of coral, a small grey square and a pale half-moon disc — a single ex-voto glow keeping watch in the dark.
This is one of the 72 Facets of Paris, born of a piano waltz of the same name. Still held within the prelude, played ad lib and free of the bar, the facet rises from the chord A♭−7♭5 — the deepest, most prayerful hour of the night made visible in colour and form.
Acrylic on paper, 18 × 13 cm, signed on the reverse. A jewel of a work, easy to live with and impossible to forget — your own quiet vigil over a sleeping Paris.
