比利（Billy Bagilhole）1994年出生於英國，在一個充滿父親畫作和版畫的家庭中長大，從小便模仿父親在牆上創作的圖像，畫美洲原住民、動物、宗教人物。 2001 年，他 6 歲時父親過世，然而這些作品始終令比利著迷。父親的經歷被點綴成一個充滿創造力的時間膠囊，為比利正在進行的作品提供了靈感。比利表示自己堅持藝術的原因是因為他的父親，這也是為什麼他對標記、創作的同理心如此強烈。
​
比利主要通過繪畫和電影製作為媒介進行創作。他經常在畫布上塗上鹽和厚厚的顏料，他喜歡繪畫、色彩和鏡頭中的技術性。比利經常通過內心的姿態和對抽象生活懷舊的暗示表現來進行創作。色彩常常與險惡的意象發生衝突。
他認為繪畫作為一種表現主義的理解形式，通過將作品作為一個開放的問題、一個未知的隱喻，在繪畫或電影製作、藝術中的意義變得無限。
​
比利強調，繪畫的吸引力在於創造未知、難以想像和不可思議的事物的能力，創造出一種迷惑感。通過對常見的魚骨、他的角色“埃德溫”或公牛等主題進行排序，我們可以開始看到這些經常有區別的圖像之間關係的暗示。

比利認為，我們生性好奇，而對藝術的追求便是為這種好奇的天性提供了一種表達。藝術創作成為奇蹟的媒介，某種無法解決的問題，成為吸引藝術家和觀眾的感官公案。

Billy Bagilhole grew up in a household full of his father’s paintings and prints, from a young age drawing Native Americans, animals, and religious figures imitating those images created by his father upon the walls. They continue to be a fascination as his father passed away when he was 6 in the year of 2001. His experience is embellished as a time capsule of creativity for works ongoing. He often states that the reason he continued to persist within art was because of his father and this is why his empathy for mark-making, for creating, is so strong.
​
Bagilhole predominantly works through the mediums of painting and filmmaking. Often covering canvases with salt and thick paint, he enjoys the technicality within painting, within color and within the eye of the lens. Bagilhole frequently works through internal gestures and hints of nostalgic representations on abstracted life. Often colliding color with imagery of sinisterness. He feels that painting becomes an expressionistic form of understanding and that by leaving the work as an open question, an unknown metaphor, meaning within painting or filmmaking, within art becomes infinite.
​
The attraction to painting Bagilhole states is the ability to create the unknown, the unimaginable and the uncanny, creating a sense of bewilderment. With sequencing themes such as the often seen fish bones, his occurring character "Edwin" or the bull, we can start to see a hint at relations between these often differentiated pieces of imagery. Bagilhole believes that we are inherently curious and that the pursuit of art offers an expression for this curious nature. Making art becomes a medium for wonder, something unsolvable a sensory koan that engages both artist and viewer.
