Okuda San Miguel

Born in 1980 in Santander (Spain), Oscar San Miguel, aka Okuda, is a street artist whose work is rooted in Pop Culture. Graduating from Madrid's Complutense University in 2007, he began his practice at the age of 17, painting on abandoned railroads and trains, before moving into studio practice in 2009. As a result, his work adapts to a variety of media, from photography and frescoes to sculpture and video. His psychedelic universe has earned him recognition from major brands such as Roche Bobois and Playstation. However, his work is not limited to a colorful universe, and is often tinged with strong political ideas or metaphysical and humanist thoughts. After painting the interior of the Santa Barbara church in Llanera in 2015, the artist is gaining international recognition, and his work is finding its way onto the streets of many countries, including France, China and Brazil.
