Using over 1,000 discarded wooden pallets, Thomas Dambo and a group of 22 builders will be traveling across the United States creating 10 new trolls this summer. Similar to his past work, the “Way of the Bird King” tour will of course include more magical folklore. via Upworthy
Perusing Thomas Dambo’s website makes it clear that these trolls are not just cool art sculptures, but living parts of an ongoing story that involves all of us, both in a literary sense and a literal one. The lore puts a fun and fantastical spin on the very real issue of humans being out of touch and so often in conflict with nature.
