Miguel Ángel Belinchón Bujes, professionally known as Saturno, is a prominent Spanish street artist who has redefined the boundaries of contemporary muralism through a distinct blend of hyperrealism and fantasy. Born in Linares, Spain, he developed a fascination with the visual language of comic books, horror cinema, and classic sci-fi during his youth. These influences eventually coalesced into a signature style characterized by grotesque yet mesmerizing creatures, neon-drenched palettes, and an extraordinary level of anatomical detail that gives his spray-painted subjects a three-dimensional quality.

Saturno’s technical prowess is most evident in his mastery of the aerosol medium. Unlike many artists who rely on traditional sketches or projectors, he often approaches massive surfaces with a fluid, intuitive process that prioritizes light and shadow. His work frequently features monstrous entities, distorted human figures, and bio-mechanical elements that challenge the viewer's perception of reality. Despite the often dark or unsettling nature of his subject matter, there is an inherent elegance in his compositions that has earned him international acclaim.

Over the years, his influence has expanded beyond the streets of Europe to global platforms, including major festivals and gallery exhibitions in the United States and Asia. Beyond his technical skill, Saturno is celebrated for his ability to inject narrative depth into static images, transforming urban walls into windows for surrealist storytelling. His contribution to the graffiti movement continues to inspire a new generation of artists to pursue technical perfection while maintaining a raw, imaginative spirit.
