Meaning & Analysis

The book accompanies Invader’s impressive installation project, the Space Invaders project, which involves the artist travelling all over the world to install ceramic mosaics of aliens onto city walls. Invader has explained the premise of the project: ‘I explore international densely populated urban areas and "invade" them.’ In this artwork, Invader provides detailed information regarding the location of the mosaics he installed during his UK ‘invasion wave.’

As well as producing books, Invader has created an online database which tracks all of his projects. The artist has also created maps which showcase the impressive scale of the project and the vast areas Invader has successfully ‘invaded.’

  • 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.
