Short Bio:

Born in Santander, street artist Oscar San Miguel Erice (Okuda) left for Madrid and a degree in Fine Art in 2000 and has been based in the city ever since. He cites everything from environmentalism to Mexicana (most notably Day of the Dead skulls) as influences, but is best known for his brightly-coloured surrealist works – a combination of carefully-portrayed parts that come together so that trees grow from bodies and figures have oranges or birdcages for heads. He has exhibited in galleries – and on walls – worldwide.
