Art like Invader: original pixel & mosaic street works to collect

Invader (b. 1969) ranks #136 in the Artprice 2023 report, with around $2.8M in auction turnover. The French artist tiles cities worldwide with mosaic "invaders" inspired by 8-bit video games, turning the urban grid into a global game. His pixel-mosaic language is one of the most recognisable in street art.

What defines the Invader style

Pixelated forms, ceramic-tile mosaics, retro-gaming references and a city-wide treasure-hunt logic: Invader fuses pop nostalgia with street intervention. It's graphic, systematic and instantly readable — a bridge between gaming culture and contemporary urban art.
