Way of the Bird King
Covering 4000 miles from the East Coast to the West Coast of the United States, I built 10 Trolls in 100 days using 15 tons of discarded materials.
I traveled from June to September 2023, and I made sculptures in New Jersey, Vermont, Michigan, Colorado, Oregon, and Washington. I got the true American roadtrip experience by traveling in an RV across the US with my crew.
Everywhere I build, I like to engage with the local communities and while working in the Pacific North West we worked along sides Native Americans of the Muckleshoot Tribe. I love to learn more about the meaning of their art and what recycling means to them. Over a thousand people helped along the journey, contributing to the construction, collecting materials, supplying accommodation, and many more logistics to make such a huge project.
