Graham Rhodes & Aakschipper Images
In August 2009, on his 60th birthday, Graham Rhodes opened a small gallery exhibiting a selection of his unique photographs. This gallery is in an unusual location, above the public conveniences, halfway along Scarborough ’s West Pier in a grade two listed building that once housed a company buying and selling fresh fish. Since opening he has sold images to visitors and holiday makers from throughout the UK, South Africa, America, Holland, Australia and Korea.
Graham has been manipulating images all his working life. As a book and record sleeve designer creating images for such clients as Octopus Books, Squeeze, The Cramps & The Police (the band not the force!), then as an audio-visual designer, video director and conference producer. In his time he designed product launches for Monster Munch & new car launches for Volvo and Rover. He has crerated public information films for the Home Office and Yorkshire Water, annual revues for Bass and the Co-operative Bank. In the heritage sector he created the successful York Story, was introduced to HRH Queen for his audio visual work inside London's Science Museum and has both video and audio visual programmes featured in many other museums. After eighteen years in London he returned to Yorkshire to head up the production arm of a York based company. In 2001, now a full time scriptwriter for both corporate videos and computer games he moved to Scarborough where he founded a small pub based theatre company. However in 2008 his purchase of a digital camera galvanised him to take his own photographs. Recognising the computer was a unique opportunity to manipulate image and colour, he took some months out to learn Photoshop techniques, allowing him to realize his own personal artistic interpretation of the scene.
“My aim is to create photographic images that create a sense of timelessness through manipulation of colour and tone thus allowing the viewer to choose their own interpretation of the image and its rightful place in time and location.”
