Invader X PETA: Urban Artist Designs New Vegan T-Shirt Collection

Posted by Chelsea Munro on December 17, 2020 | Permalink

Just in time for Christmas, renowned French artist Invader launched a limited collection of T-shirts and stickers created for PETA France in support of animal rights. The t-shirts – reading, “Freedom for All” and “We Come in Peace, We Don’t Eat Flesh!” – and the sleeve of 12 stickers, all in his classic pixelated style, sold out within the first three hours of going on sale.

The stickers proclaim “Meat Is Murder”, “Captivity Kills”, and “Invader Against Speciesism”. All profits will be donated to PETA France.

“I am delighted with this collaboration with PETA France. It is high time to turn our backs on animal exploitation. I hope that these creations will allow those who share our common anti-speciesist commitment to wear their convictions with style and to spread vital messages,” explains the artist, whose works are featured on walls in major cities all over the world, including London.”

Invader Against Speciesism

Invader may work under the cover of darkness, but through this collaboration with PETA France, he sheds light on the suffering of billions of animals in the various industries that exploit them far from the eyes of the general public.

Speciesism – like sexism, racism, and other forms of discrimination – is an oppressive belief system in which those with power draw boundaries to justify using or excluding their fellow beings who are less powerful. A human-supremacist line of “reasoning” is used to defend treating other living, feeling beings like research tools, fabric, toys, or even food ingredients – even though they share our capacity for pain, hunger, fear, thirst, love, joy, and loneliness and have as much interest in freedom and staying alive as humans do.
