The work consists of a neon reproduction of a graffiti whose author is unknown, widely disseminated in the streets of Athens during the 2008 financial crisis. Unlike the ephemeral condition of a message written on the walls of public spaces, this neon perpetuates a slogan with an ironic and subversive tone facing the moment of uncertainty we are living, leaving open the plurality of readings summoned by it.
