A new Banksy artwork has gone on display in London
Briefly

A Banksy mural featuring a rat hanging onto a clock, originally painted in 2019 on a train signalling box in Croydon, is now on display at the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden. This work emerged during the Gross Domestic Product pop-up shop, reflecting themes of consumerism. The original signal box was removed to prevent theft or damage, but it has since been relocated to preserve its artistic integrity. The museum CEO noted that Banksy's art is an integral part of London's story.
