EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Norway's rich fishing industry in Troms, specifically in the charming village of Havnnes. The image showcases rows upon rows of air-dried stockfish cod heads, meticulously prepared for export to West Africa, particularly Nigeria. These prized delicacies play a vital role in traditional Nigerian cuisine, where they are used to create flavorful and hearty soups. The photograph beautifully portrays the immense scale and significance of this trade between Norway and West Africa. Countless fish heads hang vertically from wooden racks, forming an impressive display that highlights both the abundance and quality of Norwegian seafood. The dried cod heads symbolize not only sustenance but also cultural exchange as they journey thousands of miles to grace African dinner tables. Bob Battersby skillfully captures the essence of this thriving industry without mentioning any commercial aspects. Instead, he focuses on showcasing the sheer beauty and impact these air-dried stockfish cod heads have on both Norwegian and Nigerian cultures. Through his lens, we witness how food can bridge continents and bring people together through shared culinary experiences. This mesmerizing print serves as a testament to the interconnectedness of our global food systems while celebrating Norway's contribution to enriching cuisines around the world.
