Taking Public Art to a whole new level – Bring on the Trolls!
For Scan Design Foundation (SDF) in Seattle, bringing giant trolls to the Pacific Northwest was a no-brainer. After all, their mission is to support and advance Danish American relations through cultural exchanges focused on environmental sustainability, and what better way to do that than with giant trolls. That’s where world-renowned Danish environmental artist and activist, Thomas Dambo comes in….
…“Bainbridge joins four other WA sites—West Seattle, City of Issaquah, Vashon Island, Ballard— and one site in Portland, OR that will host a troll. The project, which is called the “Northwest Trolls: Way of the Bird King”, will be designed by Thomas and include the installation of large-scale whimsical trolls, ‘each with a specific part of an underlying environmental story,’ Dawn (Janow) said.”
