I've been going through all of my un-hung posters and prints recently in anticipation of moving somewhere with more wall space and I found a pair of Chen Wei Noon Club Posters. These ones:

I'd like to get them framed up, they look great in normal light but I'd love to be able to switch on a black light and show off the writing sometimes. Having said that...I don't want a black light room.

Anyone got experience displaying images with black light? Would a deep frame with a black light strip on the top work?

Without the black light

Thats ace, always wanted to do something like this with my own work as I mix fluro paint into all of my colours. Will be following with intrigue.

Should work, would be cool to put a button with an off-(on) function (only on when held down) on the frame to make it possible for visitors to self interact with the art at will.

Someone had a black light faile dog framed up with built in lights and it looked great. It might have been a couple of years ago now, but could be worth a search here.

Yeah, that's it or very similar to what I remember. Didn't realise it was 5 years ago, where did that time go 😢

A friend of mine has done very similar to this, and it works a treat.
You can get UV LEDs on a roll and fit them onto your spacers.
The link below requires a power supply but if you don't want a visible power cable you can get battery versions - so in theory you could build the battery pack into the reverse of the frame, leaving the switch accessible...
