Giovanna Gonzalez

Giovanna Gonzalez, known artistically as Gio Mantis, is a Mexican artist and environmental activist specializing in large-scale productions that raise awareness and inspire collective action for ecological regeneration.
Blending her background in International Law and Sustainability with her upbringing in an artistic household, Giovanna creates immersive works that merge environmental advocacy with emotional storytelling. Her practice explores the deep interconnection between humanity and nature, often with presence of mystic symbolism and the subtle magic that lives within this relationship.
Through her work, she invites audiences to witness the beauty, fragility, and intelligence of the natural world, while also holding a mirror to our shared responsibility. Her art becomes a space of reflection and reconnection, a call to remember that healing the planet also means healing ourselves.
“Through my admiration and depictions of flora and fauna, my art is devoted to protecting the planet from human devastation by reconnecting with our emotions and awakening a deeper sense of belonging within nature.”
