Feather Point
Feather Point is a permanent artwork in Thaddeus Kosciuszko Park. It is a 20'-tall cast stainless steel sculpture patterned from trees found on the site. It was inspired by the Coat of Arms of Kosciuszko’s native Poland, and finds commonality with Bill Moose, known as the last of the Wyandot American Indian Tribe to have lived in Ohio. The sculpture is visible from the intersection of Hard Road and Riverside Drive in Dublin.
Feather Point was selected and commissioned by a jury of community members. Three finalists were selected from more than 100 applicants. Olga Ziemska’s proposal received unanimous support from the jury after a presentation in early 2016, and was reinforced decisively by community preference via comment cards submitted at the conclusion of the presentations. The commission represents the 12th Cleveland, Ohio-based Ziemska has been awarded since 2009.
