You an pass an array as an argument, but not like that. The lowest dimension is the only dimension that may indicated by [], all others must have a constant expression. Furthermore, you are not passing an array, but a pointer to an array. Consequently, you should pass in some size information or expect bounds violations.

Code:
int matrixDisplay (int a[3][], unsigned size)
{
    ....
}

int main ()
{
    myMatrix [4][12] = {....whatever};
    ....
    matrixDisplay (myMatrix [4][], 48);
    ....
}
