Per Dambo, “The project becomes an open-ended fuse that initiates wonder,” inspiring people to see the natural world through a whimsically different lens. Dambo’s pieces are staggering, and each sculpture simultaneously invites seekers into the depths of our woodlands while telling a story of conservation. Thomas Dambo is considered the world’s leading recycled-materials artist, famous for his troll sculptures. The Great Story of the Little People & the Giant Trolls Please run, find the seeds, and hold them in your heart,Īnd if everything gets lost, you’ll know where to start. So, the question is now, do you want to help?īecause a secret is lost if kept to itself. Where in secret and safe all the trees could grow tall,īecause a future with no trees is no future at all. The trolls took them and hid them at the end of a maze, So hard the ground started rumbling and quaking. So hard that stars started flashing and shaking, The five trolls then held around all of the seedsĪnd harder and harder they started to squeeze. Oak, ash, beech, birch, and, last, a little maple. They collected every seed forever and on-Ĭhestnut, cherry, elm, spruce, and hazel, So, in fear of a day when all the trees would be gone, To cut, fell, and break down tree after tree after tree. Little people came plenty, across and over the seas, The forest was ancient, had stood for millions of years,īut recently the trolls had seen just what they had feared. Søren, like branches, would wave in the wind,Īnd Lilja, like the flowers, each year would spring. Gro was like the leaves, breathing life with her lungs. It was told that the trolls spoke the tongue of the treesĪnd had sworn to protect them from war and disease.īirk had roots. Roskva was wide as the trunks.

Protecting each part of the forest so old. They were hidden by five giant forest trolls With 10 golden seeds at the end of a maze. Lies a forest of pristine green, forgotten by most. Somewhere between the mountains and the rocky coast
