His work has been exhibited in international museums and published in nearly 50 books. Key works include Mala Noche (1998), Anticorps (2013), and VIRUS (2020), a visual chronicle of the Covid-19 pandemic. He has also directed films such as White Noise (2019), featuring testimonies from 24 women.
D’Agata is known for his raw, visceral approach, exploring contemporary violence from political and social dimensions to the realities of nightlife and marginalization.
