Sonia Killmann is an international composer and multi-media artist from Belgium. As a saxophone player, electronic musician, and audiovisual artist, she has performed across the UK and Europe. Her works are largely inspired by composers such as Pauline Oliveros, Colin Stetson and Alvin Lucier. Sonia’s work ranges from creating ambient electronic music to classical music using acoustic instruments or electroacoustic compositions.
Her work is heavily influenced by improvisational processes. Their most recent collaboration took place at Sameheads, Berlin in 2024 with electronic musician Antonia Kattou. In March they completed a residency at EMS in Stockholm to implicate modular synthesis in their practice and translate their work into spatial audio. Since 2022, Sonia has collaborated on an interdisciplinary level with dancers and theatre makers, working with Imogen Stirling and Vanishing Point on Love The Sinner which will tour in 2024. Later, they also composed the music for Imogen’s show The Boulders We Carry, which premiered at the Scottish Mental Health Festival in October 2023.
