Sicily: a land of mystery and myth. Inspired by stories told by his mother's family, famed photographer Thomas Roma struck out from his native Brooklyn in 1982 for Sicily in search of his roots. Photographing on a Guggenheim Fellowship, Roma spent months at a time over the next nine years traversing the island, challenging himself to connect with a culture and a lifestyle completely foreign to his experience as a New York City street photographer.

Inspired by stories told by his mother's family, famed documentary photographer Thomas Roma left his native Brooklyn for Sicily in search of his roots. Over the next fourteen years, photographing for months at a time, Roma traversed the island, challenging himself to connect with a culture and a lifestyle completely foreign to his experience as a New York City street photographer. Untainted by stereotypical images of Sicilian culture, these photographs of his family's homeland are lyrical odes to the timeless country pastoral and the lethargy of landscape.
