Buffalo Bayou Invasive Plant Eradication Unit (2011) is an artwork by Mark Dion. Currently, in BBP’s collection, the work was commissioned with the Houston Arts Alliance. The artwork responds to Houston’s wetlands’ key challenge: the proliferation of non-native species. Dion’s mobile unit is not only a work of art but also a working outpost that supports volunteers as they remove invasive plants that negatively impact biodiversity. Blurring the distinction between the truck’s status as artwork and a functional tool is, as Dion has stated, “how an artist today makes a consideration of the landscape.”
