Regardez

    Walking around Paris is amazing, rambling along the Seine, the Eiffel Tower is right around the corner with other ancient buildings everywhere. For me one of the best things walking on the street of Paris are the street arts. I don't know how many of you guys pay attention to the arts but I found some street arts and did some researches on it.
    I found these little cute art in Hotel de Ville,  they were made by the artist called Invader, which is the pseudonym of the artist. He is a really well-known French urban artist who was born in 1969 and got influenced on the crude pixellation of 70s- 80s video games. Each small tile representing a pixel is You can see his work in more than 60 cities in 30 countries, and also he has books and maps of the locations of each of his works.
    In order to install these art pieces all over the world. Invader had travelled around the world six times and spent 22 night in prison cells. Frankly, people do sacrifice a lot for art.
    So next time when you are walking on Paris street don't forget to look around on the wall, where the magics are happening.
