Invader is taking his mosaic project into Lapland. The artist describes the northern campaign as an “Invasion of Lapland in progress,” and Lapland now appears as a territory on his official world index.
The designation is broader than the city names that anchor many of his invasions. Rather than presenting a single wall as the project, Invader has framed this work as an ongoing campaign across a region. His three-image update marks its arrival, not a completed inventory.
Invader’s invasions build a dispersed presence through small, tiled figures in public space. His world index connects those works across cities and territories; adding Lapland extends the project’s map into northern Europe. The artist also references Sápmi, the Sámi homeland, in his description of the campaign. The two geographic terms are not interchangeable.
