Spanish artist Okuda San Miguel turned a
non-descript lighthouse in northern Spain’s Cantabria region
into an eye-catching work of art.
Inspired by the “natural wealth of the region by representing
local fauna and, with its textures, the cultural diversity of a
modern and open Cantabria, which is connected to the world,”
Okuda San Miguel turned the Faro de Ajo lighthouse into a
technicolor work of art, featuring more than 70 vibrant hues.
Okuda started work on the 16-meter-tall lighthouse in August and
completed the project, titled “Infinite Cantabria”, in
September. Now, the region’s last built lighthouse is meant to
become a symbol of the cultural diversity of a modern and open
Cantabria.

“It has been a unique experience, both because of the artistic challenge that it
has brought about for me, as well having carried this project out in my
homeland,” San Miguel said.

A few year’s ago, we featured another impressive project by the talented
Spanish artist, a century-old church, turned into a colorful skatepark.
