Megan Cope is a Quandamooka (North Stradbroke Island in South East Queensland) artist and a member of Aboriginal art collective proppaNOW. Her site-specific sculptural installations, video work and paintings investigate issues relating to identity, the environment and mapping practices. Cope’s work often resists prescribed notions of Aboriginality, and examines psychogeographies that challenge the grand narrative of ‘Australia’ and our sense of time and ownership in a settler colonial state. These explorations result in various material outcomes. In 2020, Cope presented newly-commissioned work at the 2020 Adelaide Biennial of Australian Art: Monster Theatres. She has also featured work in the NGV Triennial 2020, UNSW Galleries presentation for Sydney Festival 2020, in the 2021 exhibition, OCCURRENT AFFAIR: ProppaNOW at the University of Queensland Art Museum, and had a solo exhibition as part of the 2021 TarraWarra Museum of Art Biennial.
