Jonloius Gonzalez (b. 1993, Coney Island, NY) is a Puerto Rican artist based in Miami, FL. Self-educated, Gonzalez sees his artistic practice as its own interconnected universe, one that continuously evolves with each body of work that he creates. The iconography, derived from the landscape of his upbringing in the Space Coast of Florida, while personal, is equally representative and observant of everyday human experiences and social challenges. He often uses Astronaut figures to symbolize exploration, guardianship, and storytelling. Gonzalez moves between modes of creation and observation, using elements of visual culture to tell the story of social beings in a melting pot of global influence beyond time.

​

Gonzalez's work has been showcased in numerous exhibitions and art fairs, as well as resides in public and private collections worldwide. Recently he has exhibited at spaces such as Stella Gallerie, Miami, FL (solo, 2024) and Laundromat Art Space, Miami, FL (group, 2024). In 2021, he was selected by SpaceX to take part in Inspiration 4, the world's first All-Civilian Mission, in which his artwork was launched into space and orbited the planet for three days before returning to Earth—the first artwork in history to do so.
