The artwork of this artist is a praise to the humble but powerful man spirituality coming from different places of Africa on the terrible and rootless condition of slaves. But it honor, in a special way, the man from the yoruba country and neighbor countries which suffered this culture influence, which brought with it the spiritual richness from Ifá cult and the adoration to Orisá. The work is taking as starting point their viewpoint about life and world, their cosmogony, customs, thoughts, philosophy and the complex and rich poetic from their oracles. All have been very preserved until our days, for criolla descent, as intrinsic part from our brief but profound nationality..
