In Repetition Variation Evolution, Invader breaks down the DNA of his most iconic form—the pixelated alien—into a sequence of three: steady, shifting, morphing. Released in 2017 as a limited edition screenprint of 150, each piece is signed, dated, and numbered by the artist on BFK Rives paper. The work captures the core of Invader’s practice: the tension between uniformity and mutation, code and creativity. A crisp, minimal meditation on the evolution of an icon in motion.
About The Artist
Invader takes pixelation to the pavement. Operating in stealth since the late ’90s, this anonymous French artist has installed thousands of tile mosaics across global cities, bringing 8-bit nostalgia into public consciousness. Influenced by retro gaming culture and guerrilla street tactics, Invader’s work reclaims urban space with playful subversion. He’s not just tagging walls—he’s coding them with culture. At Mania, we view Invader as a digital-age outsider who bridges fine art and street rebellion with quiet precision.
