If you feel like the world is moving entirely too fast, then head to Pease Park to mediate with Malin, the 18-foot-tall troll who arrived in the spring. Made from repurposed cedar by Danish recycling artist Thomas Dambo, Malin holds a welcoming bowl – itself mostly made from recycled, repurposed, and found materials – offering water for park critters, a reminder to share and protect our resources. Malin’s not alone in her waste-not mission: There are now more than 100 Dambo trolls sprinkled internationally.
