The works of the late Hong Kong graffiti writer Tsang Tsou-choi are being given a new lease on life thanks to efforts by the local art community to restore and preserve his art. The graffiti by the self-proclaimed “King of Kowloon”, who died in 2007 at the age of 85, used to be considered vandalism and was covered and painted over. Now a new generation of visual artists are taking inspiration from Tsang’s work.
