(Oscar Under The Bridge)

Oscar Under Broen  is a recycle sculpture I made as a part of the larger project “Forgotten Giants”. The project consists of 6 large sculptures made in the outskirts of Copenhagen. Common for all sculptures is that they are made solely from local scrapwood and recycled materials, and made in a hidden beautiful location. This way it invites the viewers to go on a treasure hunt, not only to see the sculptures, but also to discover hidden gems in nature. Oscar is made from scrapwood from a torn down watermill and broken pallets from local industries. He is named after an artist from Chile who came to visit me and was part if the team building the sculpture.
