FOLLOWUP: Bruun Idun, the West Seattle troll, now online too

(WSB photo, Sunday evening)

We went back to visit Bruun Idun, the giant troll newly installed at Lincoln Park by artist Thomas Dambo with private funding and volunteer help, and have been watching for her to turn up on the Northwest Trolls website. Today, she’s there, along with the full poem that Dambo debuted at the troll-“unveiling” event Friday (WSB coverage here). She’s now also on the worldwide map of Dambo’s trolls. Bruun Idun (Idun, pronounced like Eden, in short) is the third of six he’s installing around the Northwest; the first two are in Portland and on Bainbridge Island, and the next three will be introduced in Issaquah this weekend and on Vashon Island and in Ballard in mid-September. (If you haven’t been to see Bruun Idun yet, she’s right behind Colman Pool.)

    I thought Ballard was already run over with Trolls! — The only smart one moved to Fremont

      Their Dambo troll is sponsored by the National Nordic Museum, so I suspect that’s where s/he will turn up …

    Not a fan.  It’s  an eyesore.

Sorry, comment time is over.
