"...The Trolls' message of caring for our planet aligned perfectly with the Garden's mission and resonated with audiences, drawing an impressive 55% of first-time visitors... working alongside Dambo and the Imagine Exhibitions team was an exceptionally smooth, professional, and rewarding experience. We couldn't have asked for a more productive and successful collaboration."

—Mary Pat Matheson, Anna and Hays Mershon President and CEO at Atlanta Botanical Garden

Trolls: Save the Humans by Thomas Dambo

Thomas Dambo's TROLLS: Save the Humans features six folklore-inspired activist Trolls on a mission to teach humans to rediscover nature and inspire them to be good stewards of Earth. The Trolls never cease to inspire with their larger-than-life scale and presence. Like many of Dambo's sculptures, each Troll has been created from reclaimed wood, highlighting the artist's passion as a recycling art activist.

This outdoor traveling exhibition tells the story of six young Trolls who have noticed that humans are disconnected from nature and have started harming the planet. Through activism, the goal of the tribe is to help humans rediscover nature and inspire them to be good stewards of Earth. This young group of Trolls teaches people that you can change the world in a positive way with your own hands and your own trash. Each troll brings a story to tell the humans through their unique personalities. 


TROLLS: Save the Humans, featuring Thomas Dambo's signature folklore-inspired sculptures built from reclaimed materials, will amaze and delight visitors of all ages. His vision is to create art that will inspire people to explore and create new adventures in nature while demonstrating that trash can be turned into something beautiful and unique. His work is scattered across the globe and has drawn large audiences to every venue, no matter the country or the Troll.


This exhibition fuses fairytales, whimsy, and incredible art installations to inspire visitors to explore themes including nature, art, recycling and reusing trash, the importance of plants and gardens, and more.
