Invader

Invader was born in 1969 in Paris, France, the city where he is currently based. In the late 1990s, he began placing popular 8-bit video game characters of the late 1970s on the streets of Paris, using mosaic tiles to simulate digital pixels. His project has spread on a global scale as the artist continues invading public spaces across five continents, on the streets of over seventy cities, worldwide. Invader was featured in Exit Through the Gift Shop, an Oscar-nominated documentary film directed by renowned British street artist Banksy. Additionally, his work has been exhibited in numerous institutions including Museum of Contemporary Art (MoCA) in Los Angeles, Museum of Contemporary Art (MCASD) in San Diego, Museu de Arte de São Paulo (MASP) in Brazil, Museé Ingres in France, and many more.
