Benjamin Sepulveda employs painting, culture, and movement to process and express the femininity, poetry, and design of the Spanish bullfighter. He often describes himself as a plastic artist, an artist obtaining the malleability to enhance the aesthetic of religion, Spanish culture, and burdens faced within humanistic experience.

His obsession with the beauty, movement, and couture design of the uniform worn by the bullfighter has served as an inspiration to "Toro Y Torero." Sepulveda conceptualizes the experience from the dress to the kill of the bull. Translating the sport into beautiful compositions, vibrant, yet reflective color palettes, and careful consideration of the bullfighters dance, from preparation to the win, or loss of the fight. The collection reflects raw emotion, inspiring the viewer to take a closer look at the aesthetics of the fight.

Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display until October 25.
