In this series Wagner uses a sub-atomic particle collision as a metaphor to mark time for transformation and change. February 2022 marks the time that the United States experienced Pluto returning to the position it was in at the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. A Pluto return is said result in a rise and fall of empires. The Pluto return began in 2020 and has has been accompanied by a global pandemic, civil unrest, threats to our democracy as well as cataclysmic climate events.
