Danish artist Thomas Dambo has created giant trolls around the world from recycled materials and now we have found one on Google Maps Street View. The name of this troll is Alexa. Can you find more of his trolls ? About 150 trolls exist, but most of them are in forests where Street View may not be available.
The Google Maps Street View images collected by artist Jon Rafman is currently displayed at the Louisiana art museum in Denmark. Many of the images shown in the exhibition have been posted here on streetviewfun.com over the years since we opened up in 2007. Here’s an inteview with Rafman:
The project Nine Eyes, considered a milestone in recent history of art, is presented for the first time in a museum exhibition. The work, which is Jon Rafman’s breakthrough project spans almost two decades and focuses on both the everyday and the existential aspects of life in the age of digital surveillance.
The exhibition is open until the 11th of January 2026.
