In the warm atmosphere of the interiors, Pallady was often inspired either by the delicate juxtapositions of his music or by the unusual chromatic and volumetric combinations of decorative elements. The artist will therefore be concerned both with the provocative aspects of the bodies and with the calculated arrangement of inorganic objects, which he groups together in a balanced way and which often take the form of coffee tables, a desk, a newspaper, a book, a vase of flowers or a kettle. The fluid flow of the line, the harmonies and chromatic rhythms are not chosen by chance. The artist attributes a meditative gaze to interior scenes and consistently brings still life to the forefront of the canvas under various variations. In this work, the emphasis is on chromatic intonation and the inclusion of light effects directly in the colour. Pallady opts for several main tones which he declines in different variations. He would easily go from black to grey and white, and from red to brownish tones. He paints a sunny-yellow background and thus renders the contrast. Pallady creates a veritable poetry of the interior and gives his music (regardless of its human or non-human valences) a hieratic symbolism. The artist does not seek to render the elements of his props in photographic detail, but tends to capture their atmosphere and essence through chromatic artifice, refraction of light, and line smearing. The diffuse chromaticism, detached from reality, refines the pigment and is in line with the constitution of an intimate space, in which forms seem to come alive.
