“Art must be realized on the streets, as an agent of change and progress.”

Peter Bill brings the painterly and the digital together through time-lapse, video, painting, public art, and community practice.

A vessel for quietude and contemplation.

Much of my art has been about creating a vessel, a space for meditation. Through painting and video installations I hope to create a moment of quietude, a contemplation of this world we have built.

In public work, animation, film, and community projects, art can inspire, provoke, change opinions, and change the world for the better.

Move through the work.

Time-Lapse

Landscape, movement, and change compressed into moving images.

Video

Documentary, installation, animation, and experimental moving image.

Painting

Place, architecture, memory, and contested landscapes in oil and mixed media.

Photography

Lens-based work, documentation, observation, and place.

Design

Digital tools, identity, publication, and communication.

Pedagogy

Student work, curatorial projects, press, and community learning.

Time makes the landscape visible.

Time-lapse sits at the center of Peter’s video work, bringing landscape, movement, and change into a single frame.

The world is a complicated, granular place.
