Argentinian architect and artist Agustina Perelló, known as Guxta, breaks the traditional rules of space. She takes ordinary materials and reshapes them into surreal environments that challenge how we see architecture. Using discarded objects, textiles, 3D printing, and metalwork, she builds immersive landscapes where discomfort, pleasure, and tension exist side by side.
The documentary Guxta: An Empty Space gives an up-close look at her creative world. Shot entirely on 16mm and Super 8mm film, it embraces the imperfections of analog cinema, making her work feel even more raw and tangible. The grain and texture of the footage become part of the story, reflecting her process of transformation and reinvention.
Guxta’s work is driven by chaos and fantasy. Instead of following conventional ideas of form and function, she adds irony and surrealism to the spaces she creates, turning ordinary places into something strange and unexpected. The documentary follows this process, offering insight into her way of thinking and inviting viewers to question how space can be used and experienced differently.
In a world of rigid structures and predictable designs, Guxta: An Empty Space is a reminder of the power of disruption. It asks a simple yet bold question: what happens when space is freed from reality?
