On Land, Beauty, and What Comes Next

THE WORK OF MAKING SPACE

Beauty School began as an immersive, multi-day gathering centered on the interdisciplinary world around winemaking. It quickly became something more: a container for the bigger ideas guiding us. A place to consider what it means to make anything with care and conviction, and how to live a life shaped by curiosity, challenge, and reverence.

Antica Terra, all 188 acres of forest and field, rain-washed hillside and stone, has never really been ours to own. It’s ours to care for, to listen to, and to share. We walk it daily. We plant and prune. We sweat, worry, marvel, revise, and repeat.

The longer we’re here, the deeper the understanding. This place reveals itself in rhythms and subtle shifts, asking us to pay closer attention. Lately, we’ve found ourselves responding to a sense that something more might be possible…if only we make the space.

This summer, Beauty School enters its next chapter as we begin making space on the land itself for artists, installations, experiments, and conversations.

SLIP CONDITION

July 12 – August 31, 2025
Amity, Oregon

In collaboration with Marta Los Angeles, we invite you to Slip Condition, a site-specific installation of new sculptural works by Los Angeles-based artist Lily Clark, unfolding across the oak woodlands of the Antica Terra vineyard.

Named for a state in fluid dynamics in which water moves across a surface with minimal resistance, Slip Condition explores water at the threshold—its movements suspended between containment and release, measurement and mystery. Across a dozen works, Clark employs volcanic stone, carbon-rich powder coatings, steel, and superhydrophobic materials to render water’s behaviors visible, precise, and—at times—impossibly still.

These pieces exist in quiet dialogue with the land itself: the ancient rock, the layered sea-floor beneath our soil, the living canopy overhead. Together, they invite us to consider what happens when boundaries dissolve. When material and landscape, human hand and natural element, merge to reveal something entirely new.
