In the Invasion of Basque, after going to places like Anglet, Bayonne, and Ciboure, Invader returned to Biarritz, continuing his mission of Global Space Invasion in Basque, also being the first invaded city in the French Basque. This time, Invader added Guéthary to the mix, a city 10km away from Biarritz. In this blog, we will cover the mosaics BAB_33 to BAB_42.

The Collection

BAB_33

BAB_33 is placed near the BAB_03 in the Passage Monplaisir, depicting a landscape of the coast of Biarritz with the Invader sun peeking over the horizon.

BAB_34

Over the seashore of Guéthary, specifically at the pier of the Passerelle Itsasoan, a local historical landmark, BAB_34 depicts a fish, starfish, and an Invader. Sadly, it is later covered with black paint and cannot be seen.

BAB_35

Back to Biarritz, specifically near the fresh food Biarritz Market, BAB_35 depicts a blue Invader wearing a basque beret with vegetables of sorts.

BAB_36

At Aquarium de Biarritz, the artist added his own depiction of a clownfish with a few water bubbles next to entrance in mosaic BAB_36.

BAB_37

On the Place Bellevue, on the side of a building near the coast, BAB_37 shows a green-outlined Invader with a surfboard and a rising sun, referencing the surfing culture in Biarritz.

BAB_38

Above the signs of the restaurant of Le Blé Noir, a café serving delicate crêpes and pancakes, BAB_38 continues on the previous theme and portrays an orange Invader surfing, similar to the design of BAB_09.

BAB_39

An ordinary-looking red Invader, BAB_39, is placed on the second story of a building with the first floor being Maison de l'espadrille, a store selling various shoes. The subject of the mosaic is looking down-right towards the sidewalk.

BAB_40

Similarly, BAB_40 is placed near a few blocks from the previous mosaic, also on the second floor, looking towards the left.

BAB_41

BAB_41 is a blue Octopus located at the Port Vieux beach, specifically next to one of the stairs leading down to the shore.

BAB_42

On one of the historical landmarks, Villa Les Vagues, BAB_42 is a monochrome mosaic with a black inner border and background, and a weirdly-designed Invader in the center.
