Summer Wagner is a photographer and fine artist from the Rust Belt region of the Midwest. Her artwork has a mystical quality to it, blurring lines between fantasy and reality, conscious and sub-conscious. Since bringing her art to the blockchain in 2021, she has been featured across Art Basel, Christie's, and several galleries, releasing collections including her most extensive one yet - Midamerican Fever Dream. She calls herself a director of rituals, and this interview takes place prior to her conducting maybe her biggest one yet, a solo exhibition in Los Angeles, California.
