Why It Matters

A companion to Invaded Scream, this woodcut continues Invader's project of colonizing familiar imagery with his alien pixel logic. The hypnosis theme plays on optical illusion, a natural fit for the vibrating, grid-based patterns his work generates, and the relief-print medium lends it a hand-crafted physicality.

Collector Perspective

Sharing paper stock, edition size, and publisher with Invaded Scream, this pairs naturally with its sibling and appeals to collectors assembling the 'Invaded' set. The woodcut process and 50-copy run keep it scarce. As with any relief print, impression clarity and margin condition are worth close inspection.

Historical Context

Released in 2011 through Lazarides Editions, Invaded Hypnosis belongs to Invader's short-lived woodcut experiments within the broader 'Invaded' cycle. It reflects the artist's willingness to move beyond silkscreen during a period when Lazarides was a central hub for street-art editions.
