From the research I have undertaken about Bill Viola I have discovered that his main passion is within the media of moving image and cinematography. This explains why the majority of his creations within water capturing the movement.
Bill Viola received his BFA in Experimental Studios from Syracuse University in 1973 where he studied visual art and electronic music. During the 1970s he lived for 18 months in Florence, Italy, as technical director of production for Art/Tapes/22, one of the first video art studios in Europe. (Bill Viola. (2007). Biography.
