ARTAGRAPH: The artagraph is dimensional oil on canvas, which recreates not  only the color of the original, but also the surface texture in every detail. First, digital  laser scans the colors of the original. The colors are printed overlapping layers using oil based inks on oil substrate (oil base). Second, relief-molding process is taken from the  surface of the original by using patented silicone gel substance. After capturing every surface detail, 72 hours later, the mold is removed. In the third stage, the negative mold, the printed oil based substrate and the laminated canvas are all placed into an oven press and heated (600° F) under high pressure, causing the oil to liquefy into all crevices on the mold. Immediately, the artagraph is shock frozen with liquid nitrogen, leaving permanent surface texture.
