About
Laura Mas Hernandez (b.1985; Mataró, Spain), known as Okokume, constructs fictive worlds to seek a universally resonant psyche for the contemporary audience. In her paintings, she explores alternatives to saturated presentations of womanhood, trauma, anxiety and the environmental crises in the media. Adopting a distinct graphic style, Okokume’s visual language reflects her positioning and identity, which is fostered by the internet, media, pop culture and an increasingly tight-knit international network.

**PBG PRESENTS SPANISH ARTISTS OKOKUME AND POL SEGURA’S FIRST DUO EXHIBITION IN SEOUL** Internationally Acclaimed artist Okokume opens *Two Voices, One Path* at PBG with her partner Pol Segura for the first time. Globally renowned Spanish artist Okokume(b. 1985-) based in Barcelona, will showcase her work to Korean audiences at PBG. The exhibition Two Voices, One Path is a two-person show with her lifetime partner and artistic collaborator of 20 years Pol Segura(b. 1984-), and pays homage to the theme of “sharing”; the exhibition reflects on their intertwined lives and the process of finding balance through art. This exhibition marks the first time they have expanded this “experience of sharing” beyond the studio and into a shared exhibition space. It highlights their individual artistic identities while also showcasing the solidarity and mutual respect that have long bound the two together.
