Korolainen has been showing her artworks in exhibitions in Finland and abroad, from Beijing to Milan and New York. Her latest exhibitions include, for example, EMMA – Espoo Museum of Modern Art, Design Museum Helsinki, Craft Museum of Finland, Ostrobothnian Museum, historical art nouveau site Hvitträsk or Collectible Fair in Brussels. In addition to her artistic practice, she teaches. Her doctoral dissertation “The Making of Inspiration – From Monet to Warhol and beyond” was published in 2022 (Aalto ARTS Books).
The idea of time travel into a fictional past fascinates Korolainen. This dialogue between the past and the present is an inexhaustible source of inspiration for her. In her creative work, Korolainen is influenced by the use of old crafts. Because of this, developing her work is laborious and time-consuming. In slow time, a special aspect of the creator and the material she uses is formed, which creates the feeling that the creator is one with the material, and she is no longer fully responsible for the outcome of the process. The work is created together with the “world”.
