Northwest Troll: Way of the Bird King will feature giant hand-built trolls by internationally acclaimed environmental artist Thomas Dambo from Denmark. The trolls will be built during the summer of 2023 at six sites in the Puget Sound region, including the National Nordic Museum in Seattle, plus a troll on the Nordic Northwest Campus in Portland.
Fashioned entirely out of recycled materials, Oscar and the other trolls are large-scale public art installations that tell a tale of protecting nature and honoring the land and waterways.
