Ocean Eleven is inspired, in part, by astronaut Christina Koch’s message from Artemis II. Reflecting on Earth from a lunar vantage point—you are a crew—this project investigates what it means to move forward with shared responsibility for the planet.

This online presentation with museum curator Jodie Nelson brings together artists who extend the role of the artist—acting as record keepers, tracing environmental change, and as peacemakers, holding space for reflection across the visible and unseen forces shaping our future.

Together, these works by April Surgent, Julie Conway, Kait Rhoads, Meg Holgate, Jenny Pohlman, Sabrina Knowles, Mary White, Stacy Levy, Steve Jensen, Steve Klein, and TBD offer visual form to stories of relationship—between people, place, and ecological intelligence, recognizing that what we cultivate defines the communities we live within.
