About The Artwork

Portrait of the 18-year-old Japanese girl, Awa igara, who came to join me in Akabimbô in 1975. “Bird calls in the distance. Demonstration of the dragon after the summer solstice? there she is under the trees, young elegant gentle, the divine creature that life had promised me, arrived at night, finally revealing herself at dawn like a shiny woman who comes out of the bath, without a spot, like that, there , suddenly out of nowhere. The daughter of dawn waiting for me there, straight like a young bamboo that has just been split washed by the rain, combed by the wind ... When I ask her where she comes from, she simply says "from over there”, and how did you get here? "I walked", and why did you come?" I don't know, I came, that's all." Seductive mystery attributed to angels descended from nowhere. Chalepas he desmas edama. It is not easy to speak to the goddess. " (Extract from my diary, Wednesday June 25, 1975). Amber painting on canvas mounted on panel. Varnished and ready to hang journal du mercredi 25 juin 1975 elle est là sous les arbres jeune douce élégante la divine créature que la vie m’avait promise arrivée de nuit se dévoilant enfin à l’aurore comme un femme luisante qui sort du bain sans une tache comme ça là brusquement de nulle part la fille de l’aube qui m’attend là droite comme un jeune bambou qu'on vient de fendre lavée par la pluie peignée par le vent depuis toujours sous le chêne-cerise

Born in 1948 in Belgium, Daniel Moline de Saint-Yon is a Belgian writer and portraitist living and working in the countryside near Spa. He graduated as an philosopher from FUNDP in Namur and lived as an artist 16 years in Japan (until 1990). His work has been regularly exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in Belgium and Japan. Staying receptive to the history and the cultural interaction between Europe and Japan is one of his main concern. Moline’s creative process starts with sketches and drawing from life on the canvas. He paints mostly portraits (mainly women), spending a great deal of time with each subject, a rapport with his model being necessary to work. He tried several mediums but somehow always returns to amber as he finds it the ideal and enigmatic partner adapted to his needs of expression. This light oily substance of rare purity and beautiful transparency takes some days to dry out, but brightens tonnes and offers remarkable elasticity. Several thin layers of extra-fine paint will sustain for ever the ardour an bloom of color fields with strong visual impact. A patient process for a unique result ! Moline’s artistic career ( by Emmanuelle Dubuisson, in french) : « Peintre de figures, de portraits et de grandes compositions dans un style fortement graphique. Formation à Namur en Belgique avec Luc Perot, puis au Japon où il étudie la décoration et devient l'élève du Maître Ryû Oda. Il pratique ensuite la calligraphie avec le moine zen Tainin Yukimura dans un temple à Shobara. Lauréat en 1984 du concours du Kansaï à Kyoto, il participe à plusieurs expositions à Tokyo, Kyoto et Kobe, où il séjournera seize ans (1973-1990). Conjuguant les approches orientales et occidentales, sa démarche picturale sʼinscrit alors en de larges compositions volcaniques où trônent dʼépais personnages au graphisme vigoureux et dont lʼénergie vitale fait ressortir une violence expressive. Lʼœuvre porte aussi les traces dʼune calligraphie pratiquée chez les moines bouddhistes, qui se mêlent aux formes nues dans un foisonnement de taches de couleur, de courbes douces et dʼentrelacements surprenants. On y retrouve aussi des traits communs avec lʼœuvre du peintre japonais Shôhaku. Les sujets, liés au corps, souvent nus, évoquent accouchements, accouplements ou corps doubles, et allient, dans un mélange de tout et de néant, tendresse et cruauté. Comme si la violence de ces figures s'accompagnait toujours dʼune bienveillance retenue envers la vie.
