Fiona Amundsen is a photographer and associate professor at AUT's School of Art and Design.

Her latest exhibition 'Blowing in the wind', continues her interest in military history, exploring the aftermath of nuclear testing in the Pacific.

The images, developed using seawater from Guam, make the usually invisible, visible, showing us the historic radiation that lives on in the environment, and the people, today.
