Tokyo Monorail will operate a wrapped train designed by artist Hogalee from December 23 through November 30, 2026.
This is part of the “TOKYO ART & CULTURE” initiative, which aims to turn stations and train cars into spaces that communicate contemporary and traditional Japanese culture. The artwork is titled “Chiral,” and was designed with the concept of “a dashing, energetic, urban woman whose hair is blown by the sea breeze.” The train used will be one 10000 series set (set 10021).
On the exterior sides of the train, three artworks will be displayed on the seaside and three on the mountainside. Inside the cars, artworks will be displayed on the interior walls of each car, and explanations of the work and an introduction of the artist will be posted in both Japanese and English on interior posters above the windows.
The company intends to further promote the “TOKYO ART & CULTURE” initiative. At Haneda Airport Terminal 3 Station in Tokyo, a photo spot featuring trick art based on the traditional Japanese “matsuri” (festival) theme is scheduled to be installed from March 2026.
