Synopsis

Geoff Dixon is an iconoclastic figure who has worked in many mediums across five decades. He is a
wonderful colourist and a profoundly deep thinker, with a brilliant sense of humour to leaven the
seriousness of his themes.
Dixon's work speaks to extinction and to the damage we are wreaking on his beloved natural world,
but it does so with a warmth, mischievousness and a child's sense of wonder and awe at what he is
depicting.
Often seated beside his old friend and collaborator Euan Macleod, Dixon talks, laughs, guides us
through his life so far and is generally a marvellous narrator of his own story, even when tragedy
visits.
