All of the printmaking was carried out at the Megalo Studio in Canberra between May 2014 and June 2015, under the technical oversight of printmaker John Loane.
The prints exist in an edition of 20, the others having been distributed to similar cultural institutions. This set was offered as a gift to Auckland Museum by the Australian War Memorial in 2018.

Artist's bio:
"Megan Cope is a core member of the Brisbane-based Aboriginal Collective proppaNOW, and has a diverse practice that
engages with issues of identity, colonisation, the environment and map making. A descendant from the Quandamooka
region (North Stradbroke Island), Cope’s recent work focuses on the toponymy (the study of place names) and
geomorphology (the study of the nature and history of landforms) of heavily populated tourist destinations along the east
coast of Australia. Her work has been included in both national and international exhibitions, including the ARC Biennial in
Brisbane (2009), Lie of the Land: New Australian Landscapes, Embassy of Australia, Washington DC (2012), and Insurgence:
proppaNOW, Museum of Australian Democracy, Canberra (2013). In 2012 Cope was commissioned to create a major sitespecific
work for GOMA, Brisbane." - Australian War Memorial
