Summary

Description
English: C Octaves - Reflexions 13

Watercolor on Paper, 16x24cm
 Arnaud Quercy Creations / AQC0677 / 2024


The piece explores the note C in octaves through the interplay of shades of red. By translating musical notes into visual elements, the artist bridges sound and sight, creating a harmonious composition that reflects the essence of C.

The geometric shapes and layered colors symbolize the structured yet expressive nature of musical harmony, offering a visual representation of auditory beauty. This piece is part of the synesthetic collection where the artist maps colors to the circle of fifths, merging the sensory experiences of color and music. In music, octaves are intervals where the higher note has double the frequency of the lower, creating a sense of unity and completeness.

They are fundamental to musical structure, providing a foundation for harmony and melody. In this painting, the octaves of C are visually represented through varying shades of red, capturing the depth and richness of this musical interval, and reflecting its role in creating a cohesive and resonant auditory experience.
