Jamie Berry is a Multidisciplinary Artist of Te Aitanga-a-Mahaki, Rongowhakaata, Ngāti Porou, Ngāpuhi, and Ngāti Ruanui descent. Her work explores Aotearoa histories and reflects on her identity and place within the current timeline. Originally from Tūranganui-a-kiwa and now residing in Pōneke, Jamie's practice is grounded in her whakapapa and focuses on the past, present, and future. She reimagines stories through various media, including digital content, DNA soundscapes, moving images, and installations.

Jamie's artistic journey includes exploring visual elements like light, colour, movement, and motifs. She is known for using light in dark spaces to create dramatic impressions of movement and life, often paired with resonant audio soundscapes that drive the narrative. Her notable work, "Whakapapa/Algorithms," was selected for the Beijing International Art Biennale and premiered at the Oberhausen Film Festival in 2022.

In addition to her artistic pursuits, Jamie is a Freelance Digital Artist, designer, and VJ. She was recently selected for the Contemporary Native Art Biennial (BACA) 2026–2027 and completed work as Lead Designer for the Aotearoa section of WOW 2025. She is passionate about encouraging self-determination and empowerment within her community, promoting authenticity, and reclaiming narratives.
