Meaning & Analysis

Homeworks depicts the street artist Invader’s recognisable space invader characters doodled onto the page of a maths book. These red, pixelated characters are in a horizontal formation across the page, separated by black lines in between each character. These characters are taken directly from the video game Space Invaders, which the artist grew up playing in the 70s and 80s, and also forms the artist’s pseudonym concealing his identity.

The artist typically ‘invades’ populated, urban areas with his graffiti art. Invader often executes his work in a quick and discrete manner, and the same haste of completion is visible here: the image scribbled on like one would a doodle in class, under the watchful eye of the teacher. Invader’s video-game characters have become iconic, somewhat of a trademark for the artist.

  • 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.
