Mi Majeur - Recherche sur l'Harmonie - Variation 6

À propos de cette œuvre

This watercolor explores the harmony of the E Major chord through the systematic translation of musical notes into visual elements, converting yellow for E, blue for G#, and yellow-green for B. Working on fourteen point eight by twenty-one centimeter paper, the piece demonstrates chromesthetic mapping based on the circle of fifths, bridging sound and sight through structured color relationships that reflect the essence of E Major.

Yellow tones dominate the composition, appearing most prominently throughout the surface, while blue-violet passages create substantial presence in key areas. Yellow-green sections occupy significant portions, with gray tones providing structural support and a subtle orange accent appearing sparingly. The geometric shapes and layered colors work together through watercolor's natural transparency, allowing hues to interact and blend while maintaining clear harmonic relationships.

The compact format requires close viewing to perceive how the synesthetic collection approach manifests through careful color placement and interaction. This piece connects to the broader tradition of E Major compositions, referencing the harmonic structure found in works such as Johann Sebastian Bach's Violin Concerto in E Major, BWV 1042 and Antonio Carlos Jobim's jazz standard 'Este Seu Olhar', demonstrating how classical and contemporary musical forms translate into visual harmony.
