PA_1162
PA_1162 is a mosaic artwork made of small colorful tiles placed on a wall in Paris. The piece shows a small pixelated smurf holding an object that looks like a smartphone.
This work was made by the artist Invader, who started placing these mosaics in the streets of Paris many years ago. Since then, over a thousand artworks have appeared across the city and have become a familiar part of street art.
This mosaic brings art directly into public spaces and mixes references from pop culture with everyday city life. The playful figure catches the attention of passersby and encourages them to notice the creativity found in the city streets.
The mosaic is positioned on a wall and is easily accessible on foot as you walk through Paris streets. Look for the shiny tiles that sparkle in sunlight, especially in areas with heavy foot traffic near buildings.
This piece is part of a city-wide treasure hunt, where fans use apps (including Flash Invader) to locate and take pictures of the mosaics.
