Megan Cotts was born in New York and currently resides in Los Angeles. She is currently invested in how inherited memory occupies the body. The architecture of the body is a place of generational holdings. Her work seeks to provide a site for framing that space and to use surface and color to recall “lost memory,” nostalgia for a visited or “remembered” space. She received an MFA from California Institute of the Arts and a BA from Sarah Lawrence College. She has exhibited her solo work at Klowden Mann, Dan Graham and Compact Space in Los Angeles, Junior Projects, False Flag, AIR Gallery, and New Release in New York, TSA in Brooklyn, I-A-M Gallery and Atelierhof Kreuzberg in Berlin, Germany, and SIA Gallery in Sheffield, England. She has participated in the Terra Summer Residency in Giverny, France, the Vermont Studio Center, the GlogauAIR Artist in Residence Program in Berlin, Germany and the I-A-M Artist in Residence Program in Berlin, Germany. Cotts has also performed and exhibited with D3 at Machine Project and Human Resources in Los Angeles, CCS Gallery at UC Santa Barbara, and Central Trak Gallery in Dallas. She is represented by Klowden Mann in Los Angeles.
