Thomas Dambo’s Trolls

Thomas Dambo, the whimsical Danish reclamation artist, has built trolls all over the world. Colorado is home to two of these larger-than-life creations (although, who’s really to say the life size of a troll): one in Breckenridge and the other just outside of Victor. Dambo’s unofficial tagline, “the world is running out of resources and drowning in trash,” is at the heart of his mission, and the trolls are just one part of that, acting as a way to bring people together outdoors, and to recognize the awesome power that nature has over what he calls “us little people.”
