NYC - Chelsea: Invader

Invasion, a project by the street artist Invader, started in 1998 in Paris and has since spread to 35 other cities around the world. Invader pastes up low resolution tile mosaic characters from Space Invaders and other video games from the late 1970s around cities and then documents maps of his "Invasion." In Montpellier, the locations of mosaics were were chosen so that, when placed on a map, they form an image of a space invader character.
