Space Invaders/Street Art

Space Invaders has also inspired a form of street art, championed in particular by an artist named "Invader". Using ceramic tiles, Invader and other street artists cement together mosaic images of traditional Space Invader aliens, bonus spaceships, and variations on those themes, sometimes including characters from the Pac-Man series of video games. The mosaics, many being small yet others as large as murals, are cemented onto building walls, lamp post bases, and other structures. The form has spread throughout the world since the 1990s, especially among major European cities, and continues to be replicated.
