Photo Mounting | Norwegian Photographer transforms interiors of fishing vessels

Ottar A.B. Anderson from Ulsteinvik is a professional Norwegian photographer, who has been working with Neschen products for some time. In one of his latest projects, his outstanding works transformed the interior walls of the five newest vessels of the HAVFISK AS fleet. HAVFISK AS is Norway’s largest trawler company, made up to 9 vessels and 29.6 cod trawling licenses. The company primarily catches cod, haddock, and satire. All fish are gutted onboard and the company provides fresh and frozen fish throughout the year.

Andersons’s project started in 2012 and by now, five vessels feature his high-quality photos on their walls. For mounting his photo art, Anderson used Neschen’s Gudy 802 and Gudy 808. Gudy 802 is a high-quality, double-sided mounting film for digital prints and photos. The transparent adhesive film retains the original character of photo paper, a great choice for this project. Neschen’s Gudy 808 opaque mounting film is excellent for cold laminating on dark boards. Thanks to the white carrier material, particularly colour-intensive images appear even more brilliant on dark substrates.

Gudy 808 also has a pH-neutral adhesive that prevents catalytic processes and thus protects the quality and value of the print long term. It’s powerful adhesive strength guarantees a reliable bond.

Anderson also incorporated Filmolux Photo Satin to laminate his works. The laminating film works well with classical photos as well as inkjet and digital print media. It protects the work from UV rays, almost completely absorbing the UV-B spectrum rays. Anderson’s works that have been installed in 2012 still feature their beautiful colours, as if they just been hung on the wall.

Neschen Protection and Mounting Laminates

Beautiful seascapes transform the meeting room’s walls. Mounting the images and not framing them is an ideal choice for this project, as framing would distract the eyes from the underwater worlds in Anderson’s works.
