MIAD Creativity Series: Dominic Chambers

Dominic Chambers ’16 (M.F.A. Yale ’19) creates vibrant paintings that simultaneously engage art historical models and contemporary concerns around race, identity and, most recently, the necessity for leisure and reflection – acts he believes the Black body has been imagined, and depicted, as incapable of.

This retrospective explores not only Chambers’ intellectual and creative trajectory but also the mentorship that has nurtured his creative impulses and intrigue – his “shadow companions.”

Generously supported by Bert L. and Patricia S. Steigleder Charitable Trust, and in part by a grant from the Milwaukee Arts Board and the Wisconsin Arts Board with funds from the State of Wisconsin.
