To sleep, perchance to keen: Dorion’s untitled painting of an unmade bed constitutes the heart of Chambres avec vues, an installation first mounted in Montreal’s east end. Dorion gives us a wintry view from a rooftop terrace in what could be Montreal, yet the source was a picture taken at the Palais de Justice in Brussels. (“It’s the same grey that we have here in Montreal,” Dorion says.) Another painting, capturing an upward glance at a ceiling strewn with lighting fixtures and decorations, was sourced in a brasserie in that same city. Dorion also immortalizes a wall phone that he discovered in a rundown pension. 020 Pierre Dorion Sans titre, 1999 Oil on hemp 112 x 56 cm
