This exceptional album merges visual and literary languages, offering a vibrant testament to the exploration of the unconscious, dreams, and fantasy. The images, created using etching and aquatint, are characterized by organic forms, vibrant colors, and a kinetic energy typical of Pellan's artistic maturity.

The work is a celebration of life and the imagination, where each plate can be appreciated as a rich and coherent artistic dialogue.

Délirium Concerto is held in public collections.
