Thomas has exhibited his work across the globe, including in New York, Los Angeles, London, Milan, Brussels, São Paulo, Berlin, Hong Kong, and Paris. His work can be found in the permanent collections of the Brooklyn Museum, the Hong Kong Arts Centre, the Museum of Modern Art, the Studio Museum in Harlem, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. and the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. Honors and awards include the Gordon Parks Foundation Fellowship (2019) and the Guggenheim Fellowship (2018).

Thomas earned an MFA in photography from California College of the Arts, and a BFA in photography and Africana studies from New York University. In 2017, he was awarded an Honorary Doctor of Philosophy degree from the Institute For Doctoral Studies in Visual Arts in Maine. He maintains a studio in Brooklyn, New York.
