Can You Peel The Love Tonight
From 18 May
Can You Peel The Love Tonight is a new site-responsive wall painting from artist Kenny Pittock.
In his signature humorous style, Pittock playfully elevates the humble can of fruit in celebration of the beloved fruit growing and preservation industries of the Goulburn Valley, and the region’s community, who stick together through thick and ‘tin’.
