THE HOOD # 146

Space Invaders

I've driven under this footbridge so many times and spotted this piece months ago, but I was always forgetting to grab a pic. Not this time....

Edit: Kwality has provided a name to the artist via the comments; it's by a French guy who goes by the name Invader.

That's been there for some time! By a French fellow - Invader.

There used to be another one on the footbridge in Leedy as well. There's a small tile mosaic there still, but I'm not so sure it's Invader.

Saw this the other day - "In Bed with Invader":

Long time between posts. It seems as though someone has added to this in the past few weeks. Tried to get a photo today as I rode over the footbridge, but it turned out shit. Have you seen it?

I'm blaming my shitty camera phone, not my skillz. lol

I hadn't noticed, will check it out soon though, cheers for the heads up mate.

had a look yesterday and it looks like they painted over whatever was there :) at least there's fresh grey paint below the piece and I couldn't see anything else.
