Guillermo Sotelo
Guillermo 'ASMA SPEEKS' Sotelo is a Grand Rapids native artist and graffiti writer. Practicing the craft for over a decade, he has taught himself how to 'SPEEK' through art and graffiti showing homage to his love for hip hop, science fiction, comic books and other notable nerd-isms. Through graffiti — a uniquely urban language understood by few and spoken by fewer — Guillermo seeks to use his passion for the art form to expand people’s understanding and remove the stigma surrounding the history and culture while simultaneously championing for more public spaces for artists to express themselves.
