Since the early 1990s, Dion has developed a remarkably dynamic and influential investigation of the visual representation of history, knowledge and the natural world. Environmental concerns and the effects of industry and human negligence on the natural habitat are just some of the issues that Dion has addressed in depth over the past thirty years, and which seem more poignant now than ever. With an edge of irony, humor and improvisation, the artist deconstructs scientific and museum-based methods of collecting, arranging and exhibiting objects by appropriating and incorporating them critically into his projects and exhibitions.
