About Megan Hyde

Megan Hyde (b.1983) is a Boston-based interdisciplinary artist working in performance, video, sound, sculpture, and installation. Her practice explores memory, transformation, and desire, creating uncanny rituals and otherworldly spaces through a queer and feminist lens.

A new performance piece –– An Echo, A Haunting –– premieres Sunday June 14, 2026 in Boston.

Her work has been presented internationally, including solo exhibitions at Women's Work (Poughkeepsie, 2022) and Cool Change Contemporary (Perth, 2021), and group exhibitions at ChaShaMa Gallery (NYC), Ladies' Room (Los Angeles), Tufts University Art Galleries (Boston), and Gallery 263 (Boston), among others. She holds an MFA in Interdisciplinary Studio Art from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Tufts University, and an MA in Art History, Theory, and Criticism from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

Originally from western Massachusetts, Megan has lived in upstate New York, Chicago, and Perth, Australia before returning to Massachusetts. Her studio practice is informed by over 15 years of experience as an educator, curator, and writer. Her curatorial background is based in interdisciplinary and experimental exhibition-making, with projects spanning the US and Australia at organizations like the Tang Teaching Museum at Skidmore College and the Perth-based artist-run initiative Paper Mountain (now closed).
