Speto

Paulo Cesar Silva (Speto), is one of Brazil’s most popular street artists. He attributes his visual style to influences from hip-hop, local pop culture, and eclectic world styles. Speto’s original graffiti, blends lines of traditional northeastern Brazilian wood carving styles, with sophisticated textures and figurative imagery. Working in a variety of mediums such as, murals, illustrations, and graphics, Speto fuses modern techniques with Brazilian cultural heritage, to create a distinctive form of street art.
