MUSICAL TALES
MUSIC, SYNAESTHESIA AND PAINTINGHow to make pictorial music or musical painting?
A music of rhythms and notes, a painting of forms and colors.
The musical tales are synesthetic representations of the music visualized by the artist while listening to it.
They are tributes to the musicians who have influenced the artist.
Thus, the range of colors and their rhythm are chosen according to the musical atmosphere represented.
All paintings are divided, horizontally, like one or several musical scores and, vertically, according to the rules of serial painting,
rules of concrete art using the terms of the Fibonacci series.
They are painted as one writes a musical score, from left to right and top to bottom.
After all the colors are placed, the rectangles which remain untouched are painted with a so called “resolution color”.
This color is obtained by mixing the colors used in proportions based on the numbers of the Fibonacci sequence, 1/2, 1/3, …
Resolution color represents musical silences.
All paintings are oil on canvas and all formats fall under the golden ratio or divine proportion and thus are homemade.
