About The Artwork

Portrait of Otomè Efira (江 平 乙 女), an 18-year-old Japanese girl, with an aura of mystery, fascination and misunderstanding that always arouses my curiosity! “This morning after lunch, 1st painting session at the back of the workshop. Reluctance of the beautiful to undress: the nude frightens her! As much Coo and Awa went there without too much shame and found it very amusing, as much Otomè trembles at the idea that others than me could see her pussy: it seems to touch a sensitive point in her. She finally agreed to enter the game, but without giving an inch on her principles: no question of showing her breasts or her sex. Naked? either, but from behind, half-lying on a cushion, her pretty rounded buttocks in front of the gray wall of the workshop, in the same pose as the Odalisque d'Ingres "(Extract from my workshop journal of Monday 7 June 1976). Amber painting on canvas mounted on panel. Varnished and ready to hang. Signature on the back. ______________________________________________ Portrait d'Otomè Efira (江 平 乙 女), une jeune japonaise de 18 ans, avec une aura de mystère, de fascination et d'incompréhension qui éveille toujours ma curiosité! «Ce matin après le déjeuner, 1ère séance de peinture au fond de l'atelier. Réticence de la belle à se déshabiller: le nu lui fait peur! Autant Coo et Awa y sont allés sans trop de honte et l'ont trouvé très amusant, autant Otomè tremble à l'idée que d'autres que moi puissent la voir chatte: elle semble toucher un point sensible en elle. Elle a finalement accepté d'entrer dans le jeu, mais sans céder un pouce sur ses principes: pas question de montrer ses seins ou son sexe. Nu? non plus, mais par derrière, à demi allongée sur un coussin, ses jolies fesses rondes devant le mur gris de l'atelier, dans la même pose que l'Odalisque d'Ingres "(Extrait de mon journal d'atelier du lundi 7 juin 1976) . Ambre peinture sur toile marouflée sur panneau. vernie et prêt à accrocher. Signature sur le dos

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.
