He has worked in a Catholic Worker house serving the unhoused and Death Row inmates, as an inner city teacher’s aid, on a ranch with a loving family of conspiracy theorists, and as an alternative preschool teacher, among other jobs. His feature-length documentary, “Ain’t Got Time to Die,” has won awards at film festivals around the world. He currently runs an artist residency, Red Rock Rabbit Ranch, in Schwenksville, PA.

Alexander D’Agostino is an interdisciplinary artist and independent researcher based in Baltimore, Maryland. Since graduating from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2009 with a BFA in painting, D’Agostino has been reclaiming and reimagining queer histories through visual art, performance, and installation. His work combines archival material from queer histories with myth-making and ritual, creating space to honor past generations and posthumously liberate them. He describes his process as embodying research and being “possessed” by the feelings and stories he uncovers, turning historical marginalization into acts of reclamation and artistic transformation.
