Thion’s artistic practice, initially shaped primarily by Pop Art concerns, such as popular culture, the mass media and graffiti-related signs and symbols, has developed beyond these narrow confines and now embraces a wider spectrum of influences, often
going beyond the artistic realm.

image-making techniques but employing them in an absolutely contemporary context, his work makes the ordinary extraordinary, elevating everyday experience to magical, mystical status.
