Matt Bilfield is no stranger to process-oriented art. As the Fox Sports Lead Animation Designer, he is building layer after layer of pixelated art. His fine art creations are just his tangible pixels. Born in New Jersey, raised in Southern California, he quickly realized after college that selecting a tie to complement my striped shirt wasn’t enough to satisfy his creative side. So he taught himself graphic design and built a career around it. In the framework of the television graphics that he creates, he noticed that it was always the image that constantly changes as the viewer watches, inactively. When it comes to art, his inclination drives him towards creating pieces, where the vantage point dictates the image, in turn activating the viewer. Where the television screen has the plastic framework as its boundary, he wanted to extend that boundary to the dimensions of the room itself. His idea was that everyone seeing the art gets to have his or her unique perspective. He imagined a more active art medium without guidelines and boundaries. Soon he conceived a platform to realize the ultimate union of both graphics and fine art.
