In this conversation, Asher Smith discusses their journey as a queer farmer and artist, exploring themes of ecological consciousness, grief, and the role of art in addressing environmental issues. They reflect on their master's thesis on the American chestnut, a species that symbolizes loss and hope amid biodiversity decline. The dialogue emphasizes the importance of community engagement, Indigenous perspectives, and finding joy in nature as a means of coping with ecological despair.
