gem-K is the femme fatale alter-ego of Maria Korkeila, a Finnish multidisciplinary artist working at the intersection of fashion, graphics, textiles, photography and music. Super Utu and Korkeila first crossed paths in 2017 at The Community, a small independent art gallery then located in Paris’s 10th arrondissement run by a group of Finnish expats. It was from then we learnt that Korkeila’s artistry is influenced not by any one discipline but by praxis itself. This can be observed through her myriad creative explorations: In My Room – a site specific installation at Kämp Garden, Helsinki; Her Aalto University grad collection – a junction of photography and textile design through a feminist lens; and Fiskars by Maria Korkeila – a gender-neutral gardening and urban exploration clothing collection.
