Trash, Trolls and Treasure Hunts

Welcome to the unlikely story of how a dedicated dumpster diver from Denmark created a worldwide troll-hunting phenomenon. 440 pages packed with photos, stories and poems about the first 100 giant trolls!
Thomas Dambo has spent his life going off the beaten path—literally. He was always the kid crawling into the bushes, jumping over fences, and digging through the trash. These days, he's considered the world’s leading recycle artist, after spending the past nine years making giant troll sculptures that have drawn millions of people away from their screens and out into the incredible natural world that surrounds us.
Trash, Trolls and Treasure Hunts is the story of his first 100 trolls. Through hundreds of photos, original poems and fairy tales, and behind-the scenes highlights, Dambo tells how he and his crew—with the help of thousands of volunteers—scavenged over 250 tons of scrap wood to build a trolliverse spanning 17 countries (and counting!).

Trash is a treasure. By sending people on a treasure hunt to find art made of garbage, he hopes to create a new appreciation for the things we throw away, and chip away at the ugly single-use mentality that floods our world with trash.
