Space Invaders in Hong Kong: Catch them while you can!

It’s a matter of fact that street art is ephemeral, but did it have to disappear that quickly?! Last night’s discovery didn’t only make me sad but also a little fidgety. A certain anxiety started to grow inside of me and I felt the strong urge to quickly find some more Space Invaders before they would be removed.Not wanting to lose more time, I went out today and was able to locate another five. Unfortunately, two had already been removed and only a couple of their traces were left…Well, at least, I was able to capture three more of them with my camera:No. 31: A Small Gold/Red Invader right next to the sign of the Tai Tam Tuk Reservoir:
For everyone who is interested in seeing the Space Invaders live and in person, you better be quick!
