French street artist Invader returns with his irreverent brand of mosaic graffiti with the opening of his new exhibition, “Hello, My Name Is…” at Le Musée en Herbe in Paris. In typical fashion, Invader reinterprets major icons of early video gaming history such as Mario, Kirby and Sonic the Hedgehog, among others.

As a result, Invader created different artworks that reference milestone games such as Pong, Breakout which was the first game created by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, Pac-Man and Tetris. The exhibition also includes a replica of Invader’s studio, the Mothership. The show will run until September 3.
