Jeff Frost is a contemporary artist in southern California working to reconnect humans to nature through his primary mediums, time and sound. The articulation of these mediums comes in many forms, including photography, painting, film, installation, music, and sometimes all of these simultaneously. His work appears in museums, exhibitions, film festivals, and publications worldwide. In 2024, he exhibited in shows alongside historical figures Ai Weiwei, Ed Ruscha, and Robert Smithson.

Frost’s California on Fire project is currently in two touring museum shows and will continue through 2024. It received favorable coverage in the New York Times in a Mana Contemporary show. An independent Desert X installation generated coverage from PBS Newshour. Various branches of his work have appeared in the California Museum of Photography, National Museum of Wildlife Art (NMWA), Museum of Art & History Lancaster (MOAH), Museum of Sonoma County (MSC), Palm Springs Art Museum (PSAM), the Center for European Nuclear Research (CERN), Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), and many others. In 2021, Frost shot a viral image of a Giant Sequoia tree burning from the top down while shooting for National Geographic. Good Morning America did an entire segment sending climbers to the top of the tree after seeing the image. In 2020, his video art projects, California on Fire and GO HOME, both won numerous awards at international film festivals, including the largest short film festival in the world, Clermont-Ferrand Intl Film Festival.

Frost performed a soundart set at the Desert Daze music festival in 2019, sharing the bill with long-time musical heroes Ween & The Flaming Lips. His then-in-progress California on Fire film project is the genesis of the Netflix docuseries Fire Chasers, and he appears as one of the primary subjects in each episode. He contributed to the National Geographic series One Strange Rock that same year. In 2015, he was commissioned to create art for U2’s international tour, Innocence+Experience. He has been featured in numerous publications and TV interviews, such as the New York Times, Art Forum, Artnet, National Geographic, TIME, and American Photo. He has spoken at the Seattle Art Fair, University of Southern California, Palm Springs Art Museum, Orlando Museum of Art, National Museum of Wildlife Art, Palm Springs Photo Festival, Snap! Orlando, and photoLA.
