Bespoke Polaroid Emulsion Lift Artworks.
I transform your memories into unique physical pieces.
Bespoke commissions and collectable pieces in Polaroid Emulsion Lift.
I transform your moments into unique physical artworks.
I'll reply within 48–72h with a clear proposal (options, timeline, and budget).
This IS
- A unique physical artwork (non-reproducible).
- A 100% handcrafted analogue process.
- A piece mounted on artistic support, ready for display or framing.
This IS NOT
- A digital print or mass-produced reproduction.
- A conventional photography service.
- An industrial product without authorship or artisanal craft.
What you receive:
- Unique artwork: Created from your personal photograph or special moment.
- Artisanal process: Emulsion Lift handcrafted entirely by the artist.
- High-end mediums: Mounted on fine art paper, prepared canvas, or luxury methacrylate edition.
- Certificate of authenticity: Signed and numbered artwork record (depending on edition).
- Signature packaging: Carefully presented in a handmade envelope, art box, or premium edition.
How it works:
- Share your vision: Whether it's a commission from a photo or a project for an event.
- Bespoke proposal: I send a detailed quote with options for mediums, packaging, and delivery timelines.
- Creation & Delivery: I create the artwork in my studio, and you receive it ready to be displayed or gifted.
What it looks like:
Each work is an unrepeatable piece: the texture, the watermarks, and the raw edges are part of its artistic language. It is not a static image; it is sensitive matter, ready to be displayed, gifted, or framed.
Choose your artwork medium:
- Fine art paper: Emulsion mounted on high-weight cotton or watercolour paper. Ideal for framing or displaying with a mat.
- Hand-prepared canvas: Emulsion on hand-stretched and primed canvas. Ready to hang unframed or frame as you prefer.
- Commercial canvas with stretcher bars: Emulsion on canvas mounted on wooden stretcher bars. Professional finish, ready to hang.
- Premium methacrylate edition: Emulsion suspended between two methacrylate sheets with magnetic closure. Contemporary design, shipping-safe, and easy to display.
Finishing options:
- Framed (natural wood, black, or white).
- Unframed (ready for custom framing).
- Floating mount (for canvas or methacrylate).
Three ways to present your work (ideal for events or multiple gifts):
- Essential — Handmade envelope: Textured paper with a simple closure and human touch. Includes the emulsion on paper and an artwork record with a handwritten title. Ideal for intimate gifts or personal keepsakes.
- Intermediate — Rigid art box: Kraft or recycled box with a tissue paper-protected interior. Includes a certificate of authenticity, a poetic word or phrase, and a small natural detail. Available on paper or canvas.
- Premium — Eterográfica Edition: Jewelry-style box with a hidden magnetic closure and contemporary design. Includes a numbered certificate, the author's invisible seal, handwritten microtext, and a hidden graphic fragment. Available on paper, canvas, or premium mediums like methacrylate.
Every work is an artist's project. The final investment is defined by the dimensions of the piece, the number of integrated emulsions, the chosen medium, and the complexity of the assembly.
- Intimate format pieces (10x10 cm): from €60 – €90. Ideal for a first encounter with the technique or a delicate gift.
- Medium and Large format works: Bespoke pricing. Unique pieces created on handcrafted canvas, heavy-weight paper, or methacrylate, integrating one or several emulsions according to the desired composition.
- Collections & Series (Events or Personal projects):
- Series of 25 to 50 images: from €1,250.
- Large series (100+ images): from €3,500.
What does your investment include?
Original photographic material, analogue development, handcrafted emulsion lift process by the artist, mounting on high-end artistic support, and signature packaging with a certificate of authenticity.
FAQ:
What photos can I send for a commission?
The ones that matter most to you. If you wish, we can talk beforehand, and I will guide you on which images work best for an Emulsion Lift. You send them to me digitally, and I take care of the analogue process.
What size are the artworks?
From intimate 10x10 cm pieces to large formats or murals composed of multiple emulsions. We define the final size together in the proposal, based on the space where you wish to display it.
What mediums can I choose?
High-weight fine art paper, handcrafted prepared canvas (with or without stretcher bars), or a premium methacrylate edition. I will recommend the best option based on the image and the artwork's destination.
How long does delivery take?
To ensure every detail is perfect, I only accept a maximum of 2 custom projects per month. Timelines vary depending on complexity, but I will confirm the exact date in your bespoke proposal.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. I prepare every shipment with extreme care and secure packaging to ensure your artwork arrives in perfect condition anywhere in the world.
What if the emulsion "looks different" from the original photo? Each emulsion is a unique piece: the raw edges, watermarks, and textures are part of its artistic language. I do not seek digital perfection, but the honesty of the medium. For added peace of mind, I can create a small sample before completing the final work.
*Availability is limited each month. If your date matters, reach out early.

Exclusivity note: To ensure the highest standard of craftsmanship for every piece, I only accept a maximum of two custom projects per month.
