CoRK NORTH, STUDIO K
Jake Carlson and Joseph Provenza have been working together since 2015. While attending Flagler College’s Bachelor of Fine Art program, Provenza was working primarily in painting and drawing while Carlson focused on performance and found object sculpture. Since graduating, the two artists have relocated to Jacksonville, Florida and continued their collaboration under the name Magnet.
Working collaboratively allows the artists to blend their two styles and make work that couldn’t come from either one of them alone. The mixed-media work centers around themes of American consumer culture and iconography. The artists’ practice allows them to question their cultural identity by investigating visual relationships made from consumer-grade materials.
