Street Art: Space Invaders

Around the city of Rome - May 29th to May 31st



Speaking of "treasure hunts", we've been finding a lot of Space Invader's Street art around Rome. The mission is to see how many we can find! So far, it's been three: one in a piazza, one by the Spanish Steps, and one by the train station.
It's been pretty exciting spotting these little alien creatures throughout the city, especially after watching Exit Through the Gift Shop, presented by CIDSA this year. If you haven't seen it yet (you should), Invader is a French street artists that creates mosaic replicas of characters from the popular 1978 arcade video game Space Invaders and pastes them in cities all around the world.


Ciao,
Ruby.
