Em "Ori Ayé", a multiplicidade de Ori (cabeças) evoca o trabalho espiritual de Àjàlá, o escultor que atua nos bastidores da existência ao lado de Obatalá. A pintura reflete a filosofia de que o ser humano é um projeto inacabado: nossa função na terra é o exercício diário de moldar a própria mente e caráter. Através do uso de pigmentos naturais e texturas, Kelton Campos apresenta cabeças de ouro, barro e ferro, representando as diferentes divindades iorubás nas quais esses Oris são iniciados. Celebrando o Ori como um território de transformação, a obra reafirma que a vida no Aye é a oportunidade sagrada de dar forma definitiva à nossa essência.

[In "Ori Ayé," the multiplicity of Ori (heads) evokes the spiritual work of Àjàlá, the sculptor who works behind the scenes of existence alongside Obatalá. The painting reflects the philosophy that the human being is an unfinished project: our function on earth is the daily exercise of molding our own mind and character. Through the use of natural pigments and textures, Kelton Campos features heads made of gold, clay, and iron, representing the different Yoruba deities into which these Oris are initiated. Celebrating the Ori as a territory of transformation, the work reaffirms that life in Aye is the sacred opportunity to give final shape to our essence.]
