Tsang Tsou-choi came to Hong Kong at the age of 16 and earned little working as a labourer. He began creating graffiti in the 1950s, writing in striking black fonts without punctuation.
Armed with an eccentric streak, he started calling himself the “King of Kowloon” with his much-repeated claim of sovereignty over the area during the city’s days under British colonial rule.
From being branded vandalism to now being featured in Hong Kong’s visual culture museum M+, his texts are now being preserved by artists at the King of Kowloon Culture & Art Foundation.
