I love this mural. It was created by Alex Martinez and is based on the photo by Jane Bown. Beckett always had a worryingly worn face, so how apt to have reproduced this photo on this particular wall. But the main reason I like this picture is the two bins in front of the great man’s face. Theatre geeks will have spotted the reference to Endgame. And if you’re not familiar with the play, it’s about two character who each live in their own bins. Spooky hey? The pigeon must be an extra.
