From award-winning photographer and filmmaker Stuart Dunn, Only Us is a comprehensive, photographic portrait of humanity, the tapestry of mankind. As a species we are incredibly diverse and yet remarkably similar. Our ability to adapt is unrivalled; from the four corners of the planet there are few places we have not succeeded to inhabit. Only Us looks beyond the camera lens to discover what makes us human. Intended to expand the appreciation of its audience, it draws upon our resemblances, focusing on the traits we all share. Dunn's body of work spans the entire globe, resulting in a visual journey that transports the viewer from their living room to far-flung lands full of color, inspiration, and natural beauty. Having photographed people from a multitude of cultures across a variety of habitats--from the Yawalapitti in the Amazon, to the Inuit of northwest Canada, and many more besides--Dunn is well aware of our many parallels as humans, no matter how extreme the differences in our environment. With 150 stunning, full-color photographs, Only Us is a beautiful and eclectic portrait of humanity as we are today.
