Expanding Capabilities with Nyala 5
Blazing Editions proudly announces the installation of our new swissQprint Nyala 5 flatbed UV printer, a next-generation platform expanding fine art printmaking capabilities.
For over thirty years, we've collaborated with artists, galleries, museums, and collectors, focusing on craft, color, material, and finish. The Nyala 5 enhances this by offering greater precision, dimensionality, and surface experimentation.
Josef Blazar, President, states, 'This reflects our ongoing commitment to providing artists with advanced tools without compromising craft.' The Nyala 5 enables more exploration in dimensionality, materials, and color precision while maintaining high standards.
The Nyala 5 enables printing on various substrates, including acrylic, aluminum, wood, paper, and composites, opening new creative possibilities. It supports large works, layered effects, textures, spot varnish, dimensional details, and mixed media with control and consistency, allowing artists to experiment with surface texture, depth, reflection, translucency, and material presence.
At its core, the Nyala 5 features an advanced UV ink system for a broad color range, accurate reproduction, and smooth tonal transitions, crucial for fine art and photography. It supports expanded ink options, including light colors, white ink, and varnish for gloss, texture, and effects. For us, this is more than adding a printer; it expands our artists' creative vocabulary.
Blazing Editions sees printmaking as a collaboration between artist, image, material, and process. The Nyala 5 enhances surface translation while preserving original vision, supporting a range of works from fine art photography to experimental surfaces.
This installation marks an exciting chapter, focusing on supporting artists through expertise and craftsmanship. We look forward to sharing new projects and insights enabled by this technology.
