The Hong Kong Tourism Board have posted a video titled #hkshingoart to promote the first piece of street art by Japanese celebrity and artist Shingo Katori.
In March this year, Shingo Katori produced a piece of street art in Central, Hong Kong as his project for Hong Kong Arts Month. The promotional video showcases the process on how the art was created, its construction as part of the scenery of Hong Kong's streets, and the town of art and its new charms. Many events are held in Hong Kong every March as part of Hong Kong Arts Month, such as Art Basel. Shingo Katori's first street art piece was created during Hong Kong Arts Month on a wall at Mid-Levels Escalators, the longest escalator in the world. It measures at 4.5m tall and over 6m across. It was drawn freehand and is part of a process to strengthen the ties between Katori and Hong Kong. The project was decided after Katori visited the Old Town Central area during a TV shoot in 2017, after which the Hong Kong Tourism Board requested his make the piece. Be sure to check out the promotional video to see Shingo Katori's piece, titled Large Mouth Dragon Boy, for yourself! ■Information Hong Kong Tourism Board Special Page http://www.discoverhongkong.com/jp/promotions/agaru/trend/vol17.html
