Looking through the catalogue for the Hew Locke career spanning exhibition Passages, at the Yale Centre for British Art, I came across his commission for twelve chairs to commemorate Magna Carta at Runnymede.

Here is the National Trust's page which includes a slide show about all 12 chairs.

Absolutely fascinating & brilliant work which if you are near Runnymede would definitely be worth visiting!
