The Greek goddess of dawn rises atop dozens of steel tubes—human face and torso giving way to leaf‑like arms and root‑like legs. Facing west, Eos suggests renewal and strength, greeting each day with poise.
Debuted in the Columbus Sculpture Invitational; community fundraising secured its permanent installation in 2007.
