Space Invader, view from the show at Magda Danysz Gallery in 2001

Invader is the pseudonym of a French urban artist, born in 1969, who pastes characters from and inspired by the 1978 arcade game Space Invaders, that are composed of small colored square tiles forming a space invader character mural mosaic. He does this in cities across the world, then documents this as an "Invasion", with books and maps of where to find each invader.
