Okokume addresses the climate crisis through her alter ego, Cosmic Girl. This character reappears throughout Okokume’s paintings, with her signature blue skin and pink hair. Her goal? To spread a message of eco-consciousness. As Okokume says, "she travels in space and tends to the planets in need and restores them to their former glory." When painting, Okokume uses a mixture of acrylics, oil pastels and soft pastels to create a fluffy texture. The figure's hair resembles the clouds she drifts upon. Her neon use of colour lends everything an extra-terrestrial feel. This, along with her cartoonish style, reference Lowbrow art. This movement emerged in 1960s Los Angeles, with its roots in underground comix, graffiti and punk music.
