Daniel Duford's The Green Man of Portland is a 2009 art installation consisting of two outdoor sculptures and eight "story markers" that form a poem.

[2] Duford has said of the installation: With The Green Man of Portland, I have created a fake legend.

Flowers grow from the heads of passersby, a building called The Greenwood appears, and a giant tree towers over the city.

The legend encompasses all the varied, transitory communities that call Old Town and Chinatown home.

My great hope for this piece is that The Green Man of Portland will quietly twine itself into the fabric and many-layered history of the community.
