Pentti Sammallahti(born in 1950) prints his own photos and the resulting masterpieces (and the term is justified) reveal the photographer’s immense talent in the profusion of precise, lucid and subtle nuances, and like a giftto the eye, they need to be seen face on to be truly enjoyed. Each of this Finnish photographer’s exhibitions is a rare and precious moment, one which nourishes an inner dialogue and provides timefor oneself. Pentti Sammallahti has no stories to tell, neither is he trying to give an account of a situation or an action. He is not an insignificant relay, nor an image maker like so many others. He is a “master observer”, just as he is a “master printer”, one of those people who takes us by the hand and whispers “see!” in our ear.
