Hidden Belgium: Space invader street art

Hidden Belgium: Space invader street art

The street artist Space Invader has been leaving behind his small mosaic tiles all over Paris and other European cities for over ten years.

The pixellated works are inspired by the popular video game Space Invaders, which was released in 1978. Each ‘invader’ is unique and perfectly blends in with the city.

Look around Brussels and you might spot one of these miniature works in an unexpected spot.

There’s one on the wall behind the Manneken Pis statue. The other locations across the world are pinpointed on the Space Invader website.
