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.
