Digitization in the laboratory

Each original piece of El Espacio Permanente is digitized in high resolution in a professional laboratory in Madrid with the aim of preserving every minute stroke and detail of the work and faithfully respecting how it was conceived by the artist.

Professional digital treatment

Subsequently, the laboratory, using its technical expertise, performs the first digital treatment and the first adjustments to ensure the quality of the finishes and image.

Artistic treatment
 
Once the artwork meets the laboratory's reproduction quality standards, the artist reworks it, this time in digital format. Editing, layout, and even the lighting, color depth, and black levels are all part of this stage of the process, which aims to enhance the artwork and achieve a harmonious and aesthetically pleasing finish.

Color tests

Once the composition is defined, the final artwork returns to the digital lab where the final color and layout tests begin: the goal is to verify that all the steps that have been carried out previously will be reflected in the final print and to proceed to the choice of the medium, in this case paper, on which the limited edition works will be launched.

The importance of choosing the right role

 

The choice of paper, the raw material, is fundamental for a reproduction to have artistic value in itself.

All the works in El Espacio Permanente are reproduced on papers within the Digital FineArt Collection range; a line of exceptional quality FineArt Inkjet papers owned by Hahnemühle, a German manufacturer of international renown since 1584. They are natural white papers made from 100% cotton or cellulose, without optical brighteners and free of acids and lignin, and have an inkjet layer specially optimized for FineArt printing.

These high-purity art papers offer optimal reproduction of contrast, sharpness, intensity, and brightness of colors, as well as depth of the artworks. They are also certified by independent laboratories as papers resistant to aging for more than 100 years; therefore, they are used by artists for the exhibition of their works in museums, art collections, and long-term exhibitions.

The weight

Paper density is another extremely important factor to consider, as a consistent weight increases the value of the artwork. All of El Espacio Permanente's works are printed on paper weights exceeding 200gsm (grams/m2), reaching up to 350gsm, giving them body and enhancing the piece.

Production and Delivery

 

Once the series of works has been produced, the laboratory and the artist carry out a joint review and proceed to create the laboratory and limited edition certificates of authenticity with all the relevant information and the serial number.

Artistic intervention

 

Finally, the artist manually intervenes in each piece of the series using the same materials that were used to create the original: from retouching profiles, adding intensity to the shadows with graphite, or repigmenting a detail, creating a direct relationship between the artist and the image.

Limited edition

Each piece is special and genuine from its conception to its production, and maintaining this essence, all works are available in very limited editions globally.

The value of the artisanal process in the digital age

Each fine art print at El Espacio Permanente is born from a meticulous process that blends traditional craftsmanship and professional laboratory technology. From high-resolution scanning in Madrid to the artist's final manual intervention, every step ensures that you receive a faithful, museum-quality reproduction. The work begins with the original work: graphite, ink, watercolor, or mixed media created in the studio. Subsequently, a specialized laboratory captures each stroke through high-resolution scanning, preserving nuances barely perceptible to the eye. This professional scanning process differentiates an art reproduction from a simple print. Color proofs are crucial. Sofía Cristina Jiménez personally oversees every color adjustment to ensure the final print respects the original intention. The choice of Hahnemühle FineArt paper with a weight of 300-350 gsm is no coincidence: its 100% acid-free cotton composition guarantees aging resistance of over 100 years, the same standard used by international museums. The manual artistic intervention distinguishes these limited editions. Each print receives direct touches from the artist: contours, shadow enhancement, and hand-pigmented details. This artisanal process makes each numbered piece unique within its own series of 50 pieces. Purchasing art with this level of care means investing in authenticity. You're not just acquiring a decorative image, but the result of a collaboration between the creator and the technical laboratory, backed by limited-edition certificates. Accessible contemporary Spanish art without compromising quality or exclusivity.
