Mentors

Nigless Tognoni

Graphic Design Mentor

With a background in theater and design, Niq comes to DYN with a passion for the collaborative artistic and education process. Working as the marketing chair for an educational theater company in Chicago, as well as on marketing committees for other theaters and filmmakers, Niq has learned to draft images that portray information, sell a product, and stand alone as their own art pieces.

Niq’s interest in the arts stemmed from an upbringing rich in art museums (touring some of the finest museums in the country) and animation, including frequent trips to an actual studio where he watched teams of people working together to bring an artistic vision to life. He has worked in a number of artistic mediums including (but not limited to) performance, sculpture, installation art, collage, story and poetry, and songwriting and performance. He's excited to join DYN as a mentor and for the opportunity to collaborate through digital mediums with so many other young and innovative artists.
