Rue du Faubourg-Saint-Honoré - Paris 8, 20h20

One of the 72 Facets of Paris, a series born of a piano waltz of the same name: the artist gave each of its seventy-two measures the harmony of a Parisian place at a given hour, then painted each harmony into colour and form through his ideamorphic method. The waltz turns warm and slow in the evening. From the chord G♭7 it draws the spirit of the boutiques of rue du Faubourg-Saint-Honoré at twenty past eight: teal and a green circle, purple and yellow-olive, magenta and blue — lit windows in the evening. It holds the square (column 8, row 6) of the mosaic, which fully assembled forms an abstract portrait of Paris.
