<p>The protesters used mirrors and other reflective objects to send the signal in the direction of continental Europe.</p>
<p>The stunt was a “large scale, pro-EU, human artwork”, according to a statement issued by the organiser, Bristol-based artist Dunkan McKellar.</p>

<p>“The group successfully created a symbolic SOS call to the rest of Europe, to show the strength of the British pro-EU community in the face of Brexit chaos,” the statement added.</p>
<p>The protest took place on Saturday on the cliffs at Saltdean on the south coast.</p>
<p>The crowd spread out to form a long line along the coast, facing out across the sea.</p>

<p>Last year Mr McKellar worked on another artwork which saw people line a 1km stretch of the border between Mexico and the US.</p>
<p>Participants wore a mirrored mask which reflected the sun’s rays.</p>
<p>“The masks caught the sun and together they created a dazzling ray of hope crossing the border wall,” the statement added.</p>
