Artiste américain, Hank Willis Thomas (1976-) s’intéresse à comment la perspective et le point de vue influent sur l’identité, sur la perception de soi et d’autrui. Ses oeuvres polymorphes (photographies, sculptures, installations, vidéos…) interrogent les stéréotypes, le poids des représentations qui irriguent la culture populaire et les narrations sous-jacentes qu’elles véhiculent. Sa pratique conceptuelle met en exergue les inégalités qui fragilisent la société américaine et alimentent les clivages. Il joue sur le cadrage et les effets miroir ou réfléchissants pour révéler les détails en marge de l’image et les angles morts de l’Histoire. « La personne qui cadre l’image détermine ce que nous voyons (…) Il se passe plus de choses en dehors de l’écran de viseur d’un appareil photo qu'à l'intérieur. »
