About Me!

Hi! I’m Meri, and I have actively studied costume design for performing arts and film since 2018 in Aalto University, Finland. I got my BA degree in 2022, and I’m currently finishing up my Masters degree. I am scheduled to graduate by December 2025.

Accessibility, creativity and challenging the norms are close to my heart, and themes I gladly utilize in my works. Imperfection of humanity and not being afraid to get messy speak to me.

Finnish is my native tounge, and I am fluent in English.

Other key interests include:

  • The Horrors and Euphoria of Having a Body

  • Second Hand Materials

  • The Haptic Experience of Costume

  • Prehistorical Costume

  • Modifying & Upcycling

  • Performing Arts

  • Practical Effects

  • Hand Stitching

  • Cinema
