Okuda San Miguel (s 1980) on Hispaania maalikunstnik ja skulptor. Ta on lõpetanud Madridi Complutense ülikooli kaunite kunstide osakonna bakalaureusekraadiga. Tema loomingut iseloomustavad erksad värvid, geomeetrilisus ja positiivsus. Kunstniku loomingut on võimalik näha muralitena linnaruumides üle terve maailma ning ta on katnud terveid hooneid oma signatuurstiiliga. Tal on toimunud mitmeid isikunäitusi, näiteks Itaalias, Mehhikkos, Ameerikas ja Hiinas. Üks silmapaistev Okuda teos on Kaose tempel, tegemist on hüljatud kirikuga Põhja-Hispaanias, mille Okuda 2015. aastal seest üleni seinamaalidega kattis. Ühtlasi muudeti endine kirik rulahalliks. Okuda ise võrdleb tehtut justkui isikliku Sixtuse kabeli loomisega. PoCo muuseumis olev “El lago del deseo” on Hieronymus Boschi maali “Garden of Earthly Delights” (c 1480-1505) interpretatsioon.
