Helping artist with new creative opportunities

Pablo Picasso once said, “Everything you can imagine is real”. The collaboration between Luxembourgish printing company Tac O Tac and artist Sophia Rein is a perfect example. Sophia Rein was unfamiliar with digital printing before she encountered Tac o Tac. The encounter transformed her way of working and opened new opportunities.

Since working with Tac o Tac, her creation process has changed considerably. The photos she takes, she reworks digitally before printing on various media. Then she retouches these with her brushes. This way of working gives her a great deal of flexibility.

Since then, Sophia Rein has started to create personalised wall coverings and works of art; by taking photos, printing them, and then retouching them with paint. The prints are made on an Arizona on a range of materials such as dibond and plexiglass.

Making Sophia Rein's imagination a reality was made possible by the expertise and professionalism of Tac o Tac. The company was founded in 2002 and offers its customers a turnkey service: from advice to installation, everything is carried out in their Steinfort premises using their Arizona 1260XT and Colorado 1650.

Interior decoration, and even more so the personalisation of interior spaces, is a growing market. Tac O Tac also saw this opportunity, so they decided to focus a large part of their services in interior décor.

Tac o Tac invested in their first Arizona, then a second, then a third. This is proof of their satisfaction with the Arizona flatbed series and trust in Canon. In a second phase, they invested in a Colorado 1650. The founder praises the qualities of the printer such as speed, ink durability and ease of use. The Colorado opened up new opportunities for customization of projects and further exploration of the large format graphics and interior décor market.
