Meaning & Analysis

The aliens depicted in Binary Code (black) are inspired by the popular arcade game, Space Invaders, produced by Japanese game manufacturer Taito in 1978. This game has had an undeniable impact on Invader’s artistic career and even inspired the artist’s choice of pseudonym.

The arcade game, Space Invaders, also inspired Invader’s elaborate installation project which has come to be recognised as one of the biggest street art stunts in art history. The project involves Invader travelling all over the world and installing mosaics of aliens onto city walls. Invader has visited over 30 countries and installed thousands of mosaics. The artist has even installed a mosaic in space and one below sea level in Mexico.

  • Anonymous street artist Invader adopted his pseudonym from the 1978 arcade game, Space Invaders, and has continually paid homage to retro, 8-bit video games throughout his career. His work has evolved from the original Space Invader motif since the early 2000s, with other icons such as Pac-Man, Pink Panther and even the Rubik’s Cube becoming staples in his imagery. Invading urban landscapes with his distinctive pixelated mosaic creations, Invader transcends the boundaries of traditional street art by combining playful nostalgia with an urban twist. His unique fusion of retro aesthetics and contemporary commentary has solidified his place in the global art scene.
