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
Twenty to five, and rue de Poitou lies utterly still. Teal and lavender wash the air, a purple arc curves through the grey, and a single white square marks where light will come. The Marais is holding its breath before dawn — and so, for a moment, are you, drawn into the hush of a street that belongs only to the early hour.
This is one facet of the 72 Facets of Paris, a series painted from a piano waltz of the same name, each measure a place at a given hour. The waltz quickens here, and from the chord E♭−9 — cool, suspended, tender — the artist conjured this expectant calm.
Acrylic on paper, 18 × 13 cm, signed on the reverse. A quiet, collectible jewel of a painting that brings the stillness of pre-dawn Paris into any room — and keeps it there, always within reach.
