Description of the digital emulsion transfer technique

This is a technique I have personally perfected, inspired by the classic Polaroid instant film emulsion transfer, but adapted to the digital workflow.
It consists of printing an image with pigment inks onto a support prepared so that, when immersed in cold water, the ink layer (the emulsion) can separate and be manually transferred to a quality art paper. During the process the image is manipulated directly, generating slight variations, textures, and folds that make each copy a unique piece.
Transfers can be made in different sizes—up to A2—and both in color and black and white. The result combines digital precision and artisanal finish, with an image protected by a film that covers it, so it does not scratch easily and offers good durability.
