Renowned French urban artist, Invader attacked Hong Kong once again this September and brought us a new series of 32 impressive mosaic artworks. And for the first time he invaded Harbour City, the largest shopping mall in Hong Kong, installing 18 of them on various walls around the mall. Apart from the signature “space invader”, other themed-designs like “Anchor”, “Mermaid”, “emojis” and more match with each location and echo the spirit of Harbour City.

Harbour City was surprised by the Invasion and successfully contacted Invader afterwards. Harbour City is honoured to invite him for an official collaboration on premium development and charity fund raising. It is Invader’s first-ever cooperation with a shopping mall and he tailor-designed the limited edition umbrella by adapting one of the new mosaic designs in Harbour City, the giant “Anchor” at Ocean Terminal Rooftop Carpark.

Invader’s cool and playful style is demonstrated on the long umbrella. Silver grey “Anchor” is monogrammed on the charcoal black umbrella of which four of them are in bright yellow of the original artwork inspiring everyone. Printed on the umbrella strip is the response of Harbour City to his Invasion, “Dear Invader, your artworks are safe with us. Harbour City” to show the support and enthusiasm of Harbour City on art development.
