PUBLIC ART INSTALLATION
MEET ME WHERE WE LIGHT UP
Miami’s Public Art and Waterfront, Reimagined
by B. Gōnz Mejia
This forthcoming public art instalation brings a living moment of recognition to the Miami waterfront. Two life-sized nervous systems, illuminated in white and orange, meet at a single shared spark — revealing connection not as metaphor, but as electricity and biology—felt in real time.
We light up together.
THE MAGNUM OPUS
HUEMUNS of PARADISE is a living ecosystem created by B. Gōnz Mejia, bringing together art, sound, and play in service of the human nervous system. It is a Magnum Opus where myth, codex, and cultural artifact converge—bridging storytelling with contemporary forms across studio practice and game-based interaction.
Together, these elements offer a shared language of collective imagination and participatory mythmaking—supporting coherence of mind and heart through lived experience.

B. Gōnz Mejia is a Miami-raised artist building participatory art systems for how people gather, sense, and collaborate in a changing world. Recognized by the Knight Foundation, he is the founder of HUEMUNS of PARADISE—an ongoing creative platform combining sound, design, and lateral intelligence, an approach he coined that considers multiple ways of understanding experience at once.
A Nicaraguan American artist educated at Emerson College, his work is informed by international fellowships including Salzburg Global and 880 Cities, and grounded in Miami’s global cultural landscape.

THE HUEMUNS SONIC CODEX
An immersive, interactive installation designed to explore lateral intelligence through sound and embodied navigation. The work invites visitors to move through a sequence of elemental environments—each offering a distinct sensory condition. Perception shifts not through instruction, but through experience, as attention moves sideways across sound, light, and space.
The mission of the HUEMUNS Lateral Intelligence and Arts Studio is to cultivate coherence by designing participatory conditions where sound, story, and interaction support how people sense, think, and collaborate together.
