Columbus, Ohio: Disturbing Scrap Metal Horse
A sculpture of a rearing horse is made of mechanical metal parts in such a way that it looks as if its flesh is missing. Creative but unnerving.

There's street parking in front of Animal Science building.

The entrance to the Animal Science Building at Ohio State University has a creepy horse sculpture on the sidewalk. It is a metal sculpture made from gears and what looks like car parts, and is a horse standing on its hind legs, mouth wide open, looking like it's ready to attack someone. There is no name plaque or artist's name anywhere near it. I first noticed it around October 2014, but it may have been here longer. It faces east and is best photographed at mid-day.
