Summer Wagner - Creative Origin Story, Inspirations and the Power of Symbolism, and the Importance of Community

In our third episode of Season 3, we are joined by the ethereal and supernatural Summer Wagner. Summer is a photographer from Rockford Illinois. Her work contemplates the spiritual and psychological threads of everyday life and the blur of poetry that is our society’s collective dreamscape. 

We dive into Summer’s background growing up in Rockford and Los Angeles, trinket collecting habits, inspirations behind her work, guilty pleasures, and so much more.
