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
It is twenty past eight on the Place Maubert, and the old square is waking around you. Stalls are filling in purple, olive and ochre; a blue arc curves through the morning air while a stroke of red flares like a vendor's awning. You can almost hear the clatter of crates and the first calls of the market, the Latin Quarter stretching into its day.
This is one of the 72 Facets of Paris, a series born of a piano waltz of the same name. Each measure became a Parisian place at an hour, painted into colour through the artist's ideamorphic method. From the chords C−7♭5 and F7 this facet draws the bustle of Maubert at twenty past eight — the dance gathering pace through the morning.
Acrylic on paper, 18 × 13 cm, signed on the reverse. A small, vivid window onto Paris waking — an intimate piece to live with, hour after hour.
