The FP100-C transfers uses the discontinued polaroids by Fuji. Unfortunately Fuji decided they could no longer produce the best ever polaroids.

Expired polaroids

The polaroids used all have an exp.date in 2017 and 2018. The polaroids come out darker than they did before the exp.date. It seems that the development chemicals have become a bit more concentrated. Or the paper sensitivity has changed. Or both. It’s harder to get that very clear transfer. Not every transfer needs to be crystal clear, it can result in very interesting images.

Some transfers only showed a dark print with hardly any rendering. And some didn’t absorb as nicely as one would want. Especially the rougher side of the paper showed a lot of blank spots, contrary to expectations. However, this created other interesting possibilities using the peel of the polaroid. These small pieces of unique art will be shown on this site around April 2025.

The artist uses the Arches Platine paper for the transfers. In most cases, the smoother side of the paper turned out to absorb the development chemicals from the FP100-C best.

ALL FP100-C transfers created by the artist are also scanned. No more than 15 prints are available per image. These scanned versions are available via print on demand.
