Technique
[A Polaroid emulsion lift is a creative technique in which the ultra-thin image layer (emulsion) of a Polaroid photo is detached from the carrier and transferred onto a new material – such as watercolor or rag paper. The result is a unique, handmade piece with painterly, often organic texture and characteristic edges – a fusion of photography, handiwork and artistic interpretation]

About me
[Christof René Schmidt began his photographic career in the analog era and was already fascinated by the magic of Polaroid technology back then. After many years of digital work, he consciously returned to his roots – to analog photography, to slowing down, and to the handmade process.]
