Multidisciplinary artist and writer Samantha Wood unveils her new work, an exploration of the landscape amidst rational despair.

Farm: Early Frost is an invitation to listen.



The rise of global authoritarianism, climate change and the pandemic present challenges that are sometimes cacophonous – a world of human trouble.

In late September 2020, a killing frost was brutal punctuation to a precious growing season already marked by COVID-19 and the coming election. This installation, which brings together field recordings, observations and imagery, is the result of heading out into the landscape to listen closely, and observe the forces at work there.



This work is made possible by the generous cooperation of Leyden Glen Farm and Just Roots Farm, and with support from the Greenfield Local Cultural Council, a local agency funded by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
