Hong Kong: A Hong Kong transport hub was taken over Sunday by googly eyed aliens, extraterrestrial jellyfish and a cast of eccentric characters — all part of a live performance by British artist Sam Cox, better known as Mr Doodle.

The 29-year-old calls his style “graffiti spaghetti” — a series of interlocking patterns, whimsical characters and surreal narratives that often chronicle the adventures of Mr Doodle in “Doodle Land”.

His show in Hong Kong attracted hundreds of fans and curious onlookers, his canvas a two-metre-wide silver spaceship for him “to fly back home” installed at an MTR station in Central district. AFP
