Nice Produce presents...
1000 Cans
Inspired by the Japanese story of Sadako Sasaki and the 1000 paper cranes, 1000 Cans is set to be a brilliant debut exhibition for the Japanese born Melbourne based artist Hiroyasu Tsuri, locally known as Two.

In May 2006 Two undertook an incredible task when he began painting on old, used and discarded spray paint cans, turning something that would otherwise be nothing more than environmentally unsound waste into what will total 1000 separate works of art, a diary of his life and a collection that is
best described as amazing.

The cans that make up this profound collection are recycled from Twos mural and aerosol work and in a parallel to the important role that the Melbourne street art community has played in the development of Twos style, many of the can’s are also donated by the same community, including friends and fellow artists Nails, Bonsai, Monkey and the Everfresh Crew. A community undertaking which means that instead of ending up as landfill these used cans are becoming works of art.
