Chambers' work aims to represent W.E.B. Du Bois's concept of the veil that separates Black people from American society, disabling fair assessment of Black life.
He uses Magical Realism to confront the idea of the 'veil' in Black life, exploring themes of precarity, absurdity, and opportunity in his art.
Chambers describes his painting, All This Life in Us, as an example of how art can depict the inability to fully experience the joy and freedom of Black life.
