Laura & Julian, Wooden sculpture in Horsens Kommune, Denmark.
Laura & Julian consists of two wooden troll figures crafted by Thomas Dambo in 2017, positioned strategically to invite children and visitors to interact through climbing and play.
Created in 2017 as part of Thomas Dambo's larger initiative to transform discarded materials into public art, these sculptures followed the installation of Troels the Troll in 2015.
The sculptures embody Scandinavian folklore traditions while promoting contemporary environmental values through the artist's use of recycled wood and sustainable art practices.
The installation remains accessible year-round to the public free of charge, with nearby walking trails and parking facilities making it convenient for families and tourists.
Laura and Julian are positioned at opposite ends of a slackline, creating an interactive playground element that encourages physical activity while engaging with the artwork.
