CLICK FOR POP-UPTragnark was raised by the Willigots from infant spore to a childish age of 5001 on planet Wynaagan. There, he was taught to ride the great Bologna Dragons that were capable of exhaling a breathable atmosphere while traveling from galaxy to galaxy.

It was during the period of 90,000 years afterwards that he observed and participated in great adventures from other races, cultures, and planetary systems. One day, Tragnark had taken a wrong turn through an event horizon in a quadrant "<><><>" and ended up losing his body.....His projected awareness was hurled through space 5 times the speed of light until synchronizing with an earth fetus in Asia. After a few years of tough times, the human boy moved to the United States where he was raised by a kind family of human creatures in Pennsylvania. It was at an early age, the "human" Nick had begun to re-discover his identity as Tragnark through dreams and such.

CLICK FOR POP-UPThat is what he does today. He tells stories about his adventures in space, mostly for self-amusement and to remember "the good old days".......

(On planet earth) Tragnark has worked in animation, illustration, skateboard design, fashion, video games, product design, web design, database development, programming, and toy concepts, while curating and showing his work in galleries around the world. In animation his work experience spans character design, concept art, layout design, series development, and writing. In addition to this, Tragnark is currently at work as an art director developing products, fashion, toys, and consumer products. He develops entire character/concept lines from the ground up, as well as coordinating with overseas factories in the prototyping process. Just this past year, he worked with some close human friends to curate an art show which traveled both coasts of CLICK FOR POP-UPthe country. The show was televised in Chicago and covered in LA and Milwaukee, amongst much other publicity. For 2006 Tragnark has been working closely with Circus Posterus, Wheaty Wheat Studios, and Gallery Nucleus to curate the Chubby Bunny Show 2006! It's been a lot of fun and hard work. Tragnark enjoys seeing other people stoked for art, and that is why he's putting on this event.

He is currently developing artist’s series toys, shoes, and freelancing in every creative industry, while directing and developing his own animation projects.

Tragnark likes ice cream also. Ben and Jerry's ice cream.
It is rumored that ice cream is very similar to "PEJLWSFS", a delicacy found on planet Wynaagan.

CLICK FOR POP-UPTragnark's thoughts on production:
There’s a lot of amazing talent out there. I try to soak up as much as I can and learn everyday. Everybody has an opinion or approach that is valid, and contributes more towards another’s potential viewpoint in reality.

I think that we live in unique times where technology has allowed the artist to transcend many different industries simultaneously.

The advantage sits in the hands of the artist who is willing to see outside of one avenue for creative output, and know that the limit is in the perception of what that limit is, which is potentially none.
