​Artist statement:
“As an artist, I give meaning to matter, sure, but let’s acknowledge that matter already holds inherent meaning in our lives. Our landscapes, streets, offices and homes shape who we are and influence how we experience life and one another. From these surroundings, clichés emerge and weave themselves into the archetypal language of our culture.

Like the characters in my work, the environment has its own agency—it shapes us, much like a parent shapes a child. If we acknowledge that there is a child within each of us, constantly in dialogue with the world around us, we can begin to understand the collective pain we carry, and how these wounds might be addressed together. Everything, even our dreams, exists within the context of this world—a world that we invite in with our first breath.”

ABOUT SUMMER WAGNER
Summer Wagner is a LA-based photographer from the Rust Belt region of the Midwest, whose ethereal, narrative-driven work explores desire, spirituality and trauma in a post-industrial world. After earning her BFA in film production from Biola University, Wagner turned to photography of her home region during the pandemic, quickly gaining widespread attention for her haunting images which has been bolstered by her use of blockchain technology, having since built a growing digital audience of over 100,000 followers. Wagner’s NFTs and prints have been auctioned at Christie’s New York, featured in Harper’s Bazaar, Aesthetica Magazine, and Setanta Books, and shown in exhibitions worldwide.
