I am a fan of Antony Gormley. This piece is called 'Transport', and it was installed, as a temporary exhibit, in Canterbury Cathedral in 2010, but it's still there now. It was made from 210 black nails, left over from the refurbishment of the cathedral roof, and hangs, suspended, midway between Thomas Becket's original tomb in the crypt, from 1170, and his shrine in the Trinity Chapel, above, built in 1220.
