The concept of creating a grand monument to glorify his own role in the two Great Oil Wars was devised by Tony Bliar as an attempt to prove his legacy as a heroic leader. His team of spin doctors decided that the best way to publicise the scheme would be a grand competition to design the monument. Entrants included pioneering luminaries of the art world such as Antony Gormley, Tracey Emin and Damien Hirst but the lucrative commission was won by a rank outsider called Tim Wooton with his bizarre "living art" concept.
