In late September, Invader doubled down on his collection of mosaics installed within these months and added his own interpretation of Paul Watson, the environmental activist defending sea wildlife. He was arrested in Greenland, Denmark concerning an Interpol arrest warrant. These mosaics Invader has just installed show his support for Paul in wildlife matter, but how?

Previously


Invader had released the book, titled, Invader in Conversation with Hans Ulrich Obrist, prior to this mosaic installation. Therefore, it spares little time for Invader to install new mosaics in Paris, making his invasions less frequent. Previously, Invader laid down three mosaics in Paris, but they didn’t have much relationship with each other, but rather some individual additions to the Global Space Invasion.

Currently


Invader has been actively supporting environmental matters since he started his street art journey. Therefore, the artist has recently installed two new pieces in Paris, PA_1521 and 1522 respectively, in support of Paul Watson.

PA_1521

Enraged by Paul’s arrest in Denmark, Invader installed PA_1521 in front of the Danish embassy at the 8th arrondissement. The mosaic depicts Paul’s portrait in black and white in a poster style, with the text FREE P. WATSON. Invader sends a clear message, believing that Paul Watson’s arrest was unjust.

Due to the extradition request from Japan for Paul, Invader placed a second mosaic, PA_1522, in front of the Japanese embassy at the 8th arrondissement. The mosaics references from the style of the first piece, depicting a whale splashing in the water with its tail fin shown above the surface, along with the text PROTECT OCEANS. Invader here is showing support for protecting oceans and the marine life.
