Teresa Dillon
Teresa Dillon is an artist and researcher, whose work explores relationships between humans, other species, technology, cities, and our environments. This currently manifests through multi-year programmes of work, including Repair Acts (2018–), Urban Hosts (2013–) and Resonant Ecologies (2020) that focus on autobiographical storytelling, local repair economies, sonic materiality, and the intersection of legal scholarship with ritual, post-human law and eco-anxiety. Since the early 2000s, Teresa’s work has been exhibited at various festivals and institutions, including Floating University and Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin; Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma, Helsinki; Aksioma – Institute for Contemporary Arts, Ljubljana; LABoral, Gijón and Solstice Art Centre, Navan. She has held residencies at MuseumsQuartier, Vienna and the Centre Culturel Irlandais, Paris and co-curated the art and digital culture festival, transmediale (2016) and HACK-THE-CITY (2012) for the former, Science Gallery, Dublin. Her writing has appeared in academic and art journals, books, and other publications. Born and raised in Kilbeggan, Westmeath, since 2016 Teresa holds the post of Professor of City Futures at the School of Art and Design, UWE, Bristol.
