This is art engaged with contemporary conversations: the frailty of bodies and land, the interactions between people and environment, Indigenous – Settler relations, and the inner and outer markings of identity." -- Publisher's website."Materiality and Perception in Contemporary Atlantic Art showcases over forty contemporary works of art from Atlantic Canada, from established artists such as Freeman Patterson, Gerald Beaulieu, Dawn MacNutt, and Alan Syliboy to emerging artists such as Emma Hassencahl-Perley, Ursula Johnson, and Marie Fox.

Elles témoignent des idées que développait Chambers quand à la relation entre l’intention de l’artiste et sa maîtrise technique. Pour décrire la création artistique, Chambers avait recours à la métaphore d’une graine qui, parvenue à maturité, devient une plante. À son retour au Canada, en 1961, sa façon de peindre, basées sur des leçons acquises au studio de Ramon Stolz, offre certaines ressemblances avec cette métaphore. Nous analyserons dans cet essai les lettres de Chambers en tentant de retracer le cheminement de l’artiste et en étudiant ses relations avec Charles Greenshields qui instituait une fondation pour venir en aide aux étudiants en art.
