William Paul Thomas makes images to record his life experiences and observations with an approach that defies traditional documentary practices. Heavily focused on intimate oil portraits of Black subjects, he chooses certain models as a way of recognizing their significance in his life’s path. He draws on his immediate social network to offer complex representations that counter the simplified stereotypes found in popular media.
