Beatrice Dillon is a London-based artist and musician using sound within live performance, multi-channel works and recorded material. Her work encompasses interests in rhythmic programming, spatial sound, and process-based systems of logic across both visual and sonic mediums.

She has collaborated internationally with visual artists presenting sound and music at Greene Naftali NY, Palais de Tokyo Paris, Centre d'Art Contemporain Genève, TATE, Lisson Gallery, Macval Paris, Nasher Sculpture Centre Dallas, South London Gallery etc. 

She has released solo and collaborative music on leading international electronic music labels and worked with a range of musicians including Laurel Halo, Kuljit Bhamra and Lucy Railton. 

In 2022, she presented two multi-channel sound works 'Impossible Ideal Angle' [Haus der Kunst, Munich] and 'AFOAM' [Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art, Porto].

'Seven Reorganisations’, her first entirely acoustic work explores acoustic reimaginings of digital synthesis and generative processes and was commissioned by Mark Fell for leading experimental classical group Explore Ensemble. Written for violin, cello, viola, bass clarinet, bass flute and piano was premiered at Sheffield Cathedral (2022), Kings Place London and ZKM Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe (2023). 

In 2023, Dillon composed the soundtrack to ‘Writing A Play (dark blue orchard), 2023’, a film by award-winning visual artist Helen Marten at Greene Naftali, NYC. She produced the new solo album by Norwegian saxophonist Bendik Giske (Smalltown Supersound) and remixed legendary Senegalese artist Baaba Maal (Marathon Music), both in 2023. 

She is currently working on several commissions and her new solo album.
