Description
Okuda’s artwork abounds in contradictions and metaphors related to themes such as existence, identity, the meaning of life and freedom that highlight the conflict between modernity and our roots, between nature and society, always leading viewers to their own reflections.

 

Okuda San Miguel (b. 1980)

Okuda San Miguel is a Spanish artist renowned for his impressive large-scale murals and vibrant, surreal style. His works, which range from iconic city streets to renowned galleries, are characterised by a bright colour palette and complex geometric figures that transform ordinary spaces into dazzling visual experiences. Okuda combines elements of nature, fragmented human figures and stylised animals to explore themes of identity, spirituality and the contradictions inherent in the modern world.

Okuda's work often contrasts reality and fantasy, offering a visual critique of the cultural and social constructs that surround human beings. His distinctive artistic language has made his work easily recognisable, from abandoned temples turned monumental canvases to collaborations with international brands and public art projects that challenge the traditional urban environment.
