Japanese actor and singer Shingo Katori, known for being a member of the boy band SMAP, was invited to create a piece of art for Hong Kong’s streets after he visited for filming in 2017. He then spent three consecutive nights painting the corner of Shelley Street and Hollywood Road, finishing the graffiti piece within 18 hours. Drawn freehand directly under a section of the Central–Mid-Levels escalator, it features old-school Hong Kong junks, multi-coloured bauhinia flowers, and other Hong Kong motifs — together, these elements form an abstract image of a dragon.
