Commissioned for the exhibition, musician Simone Slattery has created a suite of soundscapes that accompany the viewing experience. Inspired by Beckett’s own connection with nature, Slattery has woven a delicate score that includes sampled birdsong and the sounds of the street, made in collaboration with nature recording artist Andrew Skeoch.
