Urban troll

sketchcrawljunetwo062108m

Seattle has a funky side that is well represented by this sculpture of a troll smashing a VW beetle. It’s under a freeway bridge in the artsy neighborhood of Fremont. The troll isn’t the only unconventional piece of public art in this part of town, there’s also a rocket and a statue of Lenin built in Poprad, Czechoslovakia (now Slovakia) in 1988, and brought over the the United States in the mid 90s. (More on that here at Wikipedia.)
