Untold Intimacies: A History of Sex Work in Aotearoa, 1978–2008.

Nina Finigan is a curator based at Tāmaki Paenga Hira | Auckland War Memorial Museum. Among many things, she is interested in the “embodied archive”: framing archives as spaces where bodies interact, senses mingle and coalesce and history is three-dimensional. Concerns of representation, gender and power weave through her collecting and research, while her exhibition work, including Are We There Yet and Love & Loss, centres archival collections as sites of both information and material culture. She has published extensively and is on the editorial board of Papahou, Auckland Museum’s peer-reviewed journal. Nina is also a featured expert on Television New Zealand’s National Treasures.
