An introduction to Graham Waiting, artist, ex-banker, photographer

Graham is not your traditional artist.

And if you are looking for traditional photography, well, you may just be out of luck there too.

Born in South Africa in 1954, he emigrated to the USA in 1981 with his wife after qualifying there as an accountant at college. His majors were Economics, Tax and Accounting! For the past nearly 30 years in the USA, most of his career has been in accounting and banking. Most recently he was employed by Blue Hills Bank, formerly Hyde Park Savings Bank. Previously he was CFO at Cambridge Trust Company, Director of Finance for the Consumer Lending Finance group at Bank of Boston and Executive Vice President at South Shore Bank.

In 2005, he 'found the light' and took a sabbatical from banking. Aged 50+, he went back to school at the Boston University Center for Digital Arts (CDIA), full time, and graduated nearly a year later with a certificate in digital photography.

Nearly ten years later, Graham is now ready to bring us his collection of works that depict harmony, or the lack thereof, in nature around us. In his artist’s statement he says:

”I have an inexplicable need that my right brain and left brain stay in communica tion. Somehow, it brings more harmony to both equations, work and art. It helps me reconcile what is important in life and at the same time, focus on how to make life better. By studying and recording harmony in nature, I strive to reach that level too”

Using a new metal printed medium, Graham challenges you to bring both your left brain and right brain and to ‘reconcile’ his statements with yours. But, we promise, you won’t need a calculator.
