"Me Kaksi" is a photo collection by Finnish photographer Pentti Samaratti. He taught photography at the University of Art and Design Helsinki, the largest art university in the Nordic countries. In the early 1990s, Samaratti, in his 40s, received a scholarship and decided to pursue photography. Since then, he has traveled the world, taking photographs in Finland and other parts of Northern Europe, the UK, Japan, and China, and has received numerous awards both at home and abroad. Samaratti's work focuses on landscapes, animals, and people. His monochrome portraits of vast landscapes, the animals that inhabit them, and the human figure are poetically rendered, creating a tranquil, warm yet sometimes lonely atmosphere. This book includes both Samaratti's masterpieces and unpublished works. As the title, "Us Two," suggests, it is filled with images of couples, friends, and other "two people." Born amid the COVID-19 pandemic, this book seems to ask, "You're not alone. We're all in this together." English version.
