Greek artist Panos Sklavenitis who produced the composition (and the idea) together with Manolis Anastasakos and Kretsis Crew (who painted the mural) have created the mural No Signal in the streets of Athens, just a few blocks from the Greek Parliament. Of this street art, he says: ‘The sign No Signal interests me for a number of reasons. It declares and cancels at the same time the lack of signal in Greece. And the analogies with the current socio-political situation of the country are more than obvious’.
