Muses of Avatar – Zoe, Sigourney and Kate 2024

In celebration of Avatar: The Way of Water and the global “Keep Our Oceans Amazing” campaign, James Cameron and Disney commissioned renowned underwater photographer Christy Lee Rogers to create a collection of photographs celebrating our oceans. The artworks – featuring the film’s stars Zoe Saldaña, Sigourney Weaver and Kate Winslet – will help protect 10 of our ocean’s amazing animals and their habitats, connected to the beauty of Pandora, as 100% of net proceeds* from the art sales will go to The Nature Conservancy and help protect our oceans.

Christy Lee Rogers was most recently commissioned by James Cameron and Disney to shoot the stars of Avatar – Zoe Saldaña, Sigourney Weaver and Kate Winslet to raise money for The Nature Conservancy. She is a visual artist from Kailua, Hawaii. Her obsession with water as a medium for breaking the conventions of contemporary photography has led to her work being compared to Baroque painting masters like Caravaggio. Boisterous in color and complexity, Rogers applies her original technique to a barrage of bodies submerged in water during the night, and creates her effects using the refraction of light. Through a fragile process of experimentation, she builds elaborate scenes of coalesced colors and entangled bodies that exalt the human character as one of vigor and warmth, while also capturing the beauty and vulnerability of the occasionally tragic experience that is the human condition.
