The work of Joseph Provenza explores the process of uncovering fragments of an internal landscape, while engaging in an ongoing dialogue with the surrounding world. The process of painting serves as a filter, deconstructing ideas and experiences, absorbing them, and then reassembling them with discount hardware store paint. Whether free-associative or symbolic, the images balance between naive figurations and bleak portrayals of consumption.
