O giro Ailopin pode ser compreendido como um giro infinito. Nessa perspectiva, a obra articula o conceito de tempo ao habitar uma temporalidade transiente, composta por presente, passado e futuro acumulados no núcleo da energia vital do movimento. Em diálogo com a cosmopercepção afro-brasileira e a simetria de seus símbolos, a obra transcende o conceito de abstração, tendo como princípio fundamental a restituição da força vital dos corpos coletivos.

[The "Ailopin spin" can be understood as an infinite turn. From this perspective, the work articulates the concept of time by inhabiting a transient temporality, composed of the present, past, and future accumulated at the core of the vital energy of movement. In dialogue with Afro-Brazilian cosmoperception and the symmetry of its symbols, the work transcends the concept of abstraction, having as its fundamental principle the restoration of the vital force of collective bodies.]
