The exhibition marks a milestone for Thomas, introducing an entirely new body of work that expands her practice into an exploration of masculinity and the representation of the Black male body. Bringing together large-scale paintings, collage and photography, the exhibition reflects a pivotal shift in one of the most influential artistic practices in contemporary art.
