Agostina Cerullo Agostina Cerullo is a nomadic Argentinian visual artist and photographer whose practice is shaped by a lifelong sense of movement and displacement. This constant flux has given her an acute awareness of what it means to leave, to adapt, and to remember. Her practice moves fluidly between photography, installation, moving image, and experimental bookmaking, often exploring themes of grief, identity, transformation, and emotional memory. With a deep interest in psychology and the complexities of human connection, her process is instinctive and tactile—favoring handmade forms, layered narratives, and raw, imperfect traces of feeling.
Initially self-taught, she later refined her voice through studies at the University of the Arts London and the School of Visual Arts in New York. Her projects frequently take hybrid forms—part archive, part sculpture, part confessional.
At the heart of her practice is an ongoing search for meaning in movement—for connection not despite displacement, but because of it.
Gone & Leaving
Gone & Leaving began as something much larger—a 13-meter-long accordion object that unfolded across tables and floors, somewhere between a book, an installation, and an emotional map. It was built during a time of rupture, frantically collecting fragments of images, thoughts, and emotional residue—searching for form through chaos in a raw and instinctive way. Over time, the project shifted and condensed—what once occupied the length of a room is now held between two hands. A year and a half later, it has become what it is today: a small, intimate book. Still accordion-made, still layered and unstable—like memory itself.
The book moves like a film strip: frame by frame, it carries photographs, scans, journal pages, and marks of absence. Its black surfaces absorb and reflect, evoking the cinematic, the intimate, the remembered.
At its core, Gone & Leaving is a book about departures—from places, people, and pieces of identity. It asks: What remains? What unfolds when everything familiar dissolves?
