Synopsis

Brooklyn was the place of Thomas Roma's boyhood, a place of lush gardens and expanses of white cement, where the old country and the new world merged. In these photographs of streets, passages, abandoned building-sites and gardens, taken over a period of 20 years, Roma reproduces images of the neighbourhoods that shaped him, showing aspects of the city which are by turns amusing, forlorn, and surreal.

Review

“Roma's work is about describing unprepossessing materials beautifully, in the manner of Eugene Atget, Walker Evans, and, most immediately, Lee Friedlander.”
- Andy Grundberg, New York Times
