Marte Eknæs & Nicolau Vergueiro
Janitoria

October 25 - November 30, 2013

What Pipeline is happy to present new collaborative works by Marte Eknæs & Nicolau Vergueiro. Janitoria continues the conversation last seen in Scrapscape, their show at Exilo Studios, Los Angeles.

Janitoria is in the rearguard. Manifesting maintenance, repurposing, consumption and waste. The brush and trash can are the main icons transposed into characters in this tableaux. Objects and buildings become flashy facades, patterns and acts unfolding in their own moments of public functional hysteria. Anthropomorphized utility, as the consumed becomes the consumer.
