BTA_07, Space Invader mosaic in Bastia, France.
This mosaic displays a blue pixelated figure with two eyes set against a red background, created from small colored ceramic tiles. The arrangement of these pieces follows a grid pattern that echoes early computer games.
This mosaic was installed in the early 2000s as part of an urban art initiative to revitalize public spaces. The installation followed a global art trend that has since generated thousands of similar works around the world.
The mosaic takes its name from a video game character and forms part of a global art movement that decorates city walls with pixelated figures. Visitors see in it a piece of popular culture woven into the public spaces of the city.
The work is located on an exterior wall near the city center and is easily visible during daylight hours. The site is accessible on foot and has no particular access restrictions.
This artwork is part of a global game where the artist catalogs his work with a number that collectors worldwide search for. The installation in Bastia is one of thousands following this playful approach to urban decoration.
