Kowloon | 30 x 30cm
“Kowloon” weaves together traditional Kowloon imagery, capturing elements of the Kowloon Walled City, street food vendors, traditional Hong Kong mailboxes, and the famous flower market. The Kowloon Walled City was a densely populated and largely ungoverned enclave within the boundaries of Kowloon City, British Hong Kong.
Originally built as an Imperial Chinese military fort, it became a de jure enclave after the New Territories were leased to the United Kingdom in 1898. It attracted refugees fleeing the renewed Chinese Civil War. By the late 1980s, it housed roughly 35,000 residents within its compact territory of 2.6 hectares (6.4 acres). It was destroyed in 1994 due to overcrowding and its lawless state, and Kowloon Walled City Park was erected in 1995. This drawing was created with fineliner and ink markers.
