Sine Missione Jimi Hendrix 1942 quotation; When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. Preston UK
the instantly-recognisable work of Sine Missione is peppered across the region. It means that at least some of the thousands of dull, often vandalised, green electrical boxes that dot most streets across Liverpool now shine with fresh paint and the faces and words of the likes of Che Guevara, Bob Marley, John Lennon and Bill others. That was the birth of Sine Missione - the first of hundreds of pieces of art that have seen him hard at work in the dead of night, posing as a workman to avoid the questions of officials and turn grot spots into attractions. His view is that if no-one else is maintaining the appearance of the boxes, how can anyone complain that he is? And he always repaints the serial numbers on them. Sine Missione, it turns out, is a one man mission to clean up the city, to try and make people smile and to encourage them to broaden their horizons. James Marshall "Jimi" Hendrix was an American rock guitarist, singer, and songwriter. His mainstream career lasted only four years, but he is widely regarded as one of the most influential guitarists in history and one of the most celebrated musicians of the 20th century.
