Mythic Karelia, a treasure of poetry, a heart of Finnish language, an idyllic museum of an ancient past. With these words Karelia was described at the end of 19th century during the time of romantic Karelianism. Nowadays Karelia is a border district – it is one nature, but, as one of the orders of EU, a politically and socially divided region. Russian photographer Anastasia Khoroshilova and Finnish photographer Jaakko Heikkilä have worked separately but made together their view of Karelia today.
