Invaders line the walls of Varanasi
Dave and his wife spent last weekend in Varanasi, the holy Hindu city, and discovered that it was chock-a-block with Invaders, the tile-based Space Invader graffiti/street art icons: "These were all over Varanasi: paintings on the ghats, mosaics in the passageways. With twisting alleys, crumbling stone structures, and wandering Sadhus coming at us from every direction, Varanasi feels like it hasn’t changed in two hundred years. Which made these paintings and mosaics all the more incongruous." Link (Thanks, Dave!)
