Moving unsourced material here. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 21:19, 16 September 2017 (UTC) She was born in Taranaki in 1943. B.Sc., Dip.Soc.Sc. and M.A., 1st class Hons in Mathematics. Offered Massey Doctoral Scholarship in Chaos Theory '97. Taught Maths and Physics, mostly at New Plymouth Girls High School and Okato College. Changed direction to art. Lives at Puniho with painter Paul Hutchinson. She has a Fifth Degree Black belt in Taekwon-Do (gained in 2015 at the age of 72). Awarded the General Choi Hong Hi Legacy Award in 2015.

Copeland has worked in collage, jewellery, book-making, photography and sculpture, but her favoured medium is assemblage or box-art : careful constructions of treasured objects. She has led groups of Taranaki artists to exhibit in Paris, France. 2014 and 2017.

Copeland's assemblage artwork has been described as “joy in jetsam, philosophy in flotsam”. She finds discarded objects and puts them together not as narratives but as encapsulations of the human condition. “Bricolage” – philosophy in the found.

Books she has written include: "Bookbinding - An Introduction" 1994, "Assemblage Art" 1995, "Assemblage 100" 2003, "Elephants and Camels - The Art of Staying Afloat" 2008, "Virtual Tart @ Home" 2011, "Complex Numbers in Graphs" 2013, "Taranaki à Paris" 2014, "International Assemblage" 2015, "Taekwon-Do Patterns (Tul)" 2015, "New Plymouth's Mine" 2015.
