Gonz Art Lab & Gallery is a new gallery in Miami, and it’s still growing. Think of it as a studio of Art Engineering: artistic ideas built alongside real applied technology, where something like a sonic mandala or a howling moon hangs on the wall like a piece, but actually works as a functioning device. Sculpture gets made here too, alongside that wall-based work.

Project:
Neo-Tondo: One Artist, Four Voices
One artist, Gonzalo Chirinos, arrives at DIAF 2026 as four: Zeffa Santos, Joshua Bronti, Taro Yamada and Enrique VIII Rodríguez. Each is a separate line of research with its own language, geography and temperament. All four paint the same shape: the circle.
The exhibition proposes a single idea. Four voices, four ways of looking at the body, the memory, the land and the question, gathered on round supports where image and written poetry share one surface. The viewer does not look at a picture and then read a caption. The poem is inside the picture, and the picture is inside
the poem.
It is a show of mirrors. Each persona reflects something the visitor already carries: childhood, an appetite, a longing for silence, an unanswered question. Together they say what the artist has found over years of work: we are multitudes, and the multitude is one spirit.
