About The Artwork

Time is a galloping horse. Summer is already coming to an end, a hot summer in the company of my last love nugget.The setting sun sprinkles with bright gold the tops of oaks and pines. Its rays extinguish one after the other. Objects lose their shape in the steam that the heat of the day begins to rise on the surface of Warfa Lake. Birds are silent. Only a few anours still grow in the pond at the bottom of the garden …Suddenly a chimera blurs my soul. I already experience the deep emotion of this hot and humid night, when Haruka will sink her index finger into my mouth. Perhaps she will then hold out her lips and finally whisper in my ear the magic words: - “あ れ を... い れ て”. Haruka had an unusual intelligence, a devil’s beauty and a lost angel’s look, but her body had some problems with boundaries. She often spoke of these limits that we cannot even suspect, which deprive us of a penetrating grasp of things without shadow of reach. For me, it embodies the materiality of freedom and the singular beauty of the last improbable beings who still live in the state sauvage. Amber painting on mounted canvas without frame, 98 x 98 cm. Signature on the back. Varnished and ready to hang.

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.
