Fiona Jack is a conceptual artist based in Auckland, New Zealand. Her projects consider socio-political issues and look to the past in order to understand the present. The collaborative project, Living Halls (2010), examined New Zealand’s radical commitment to building hundreds of social halls as war memorials after WWI. Also collaborative and focused on community The Heraldry of Presence (2014) studied banners and their long service as identifiers and gathering devices for groups of people. The series, In time I will see things a little differently (2010 – ongoing), engages with the close examination of historical photographs, and two projects with Ngarimu Blair and Ngāti Whātua o Ōrākei – Palisade (2008) and Kohimarama (2008) – have drawn attention to historical acts of violent colonisation through re-enactment and re-presentation. She has an MFA from CalArts Los Angeles.
