Megan Plunkett’s serial photographic practice examines the unstable relationship between image and object, questioning how visual suggestions affect perception. Her photographs blur fact and fiction, taking an unconventional view toward common objects and everyday scenes, and blending a variety of practical effects and photographic techniques. Scale is distorted, clarity is confounded, and expectations are upended in her work, initiating a new, uncanny reality.

Plunkett (*1985, United States) lives and works in Los Angeles. She has presented two solo exhibitions at Sweetwater, most recently in 2025. Other recent solo and two-person exhibitions have been held at Dracula's Revenge, Emalin, and F Gallery. Her work has been included in group exhibitions at The Wig, the Bonner Kunstverein, and MOSTYN. In 2024, she was named co-chair of Photography at the Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts at Bard College.
