Through the work of five artists and the use of diverse media, the sea is explored as an uncontrollable force, a source of life, and an archive — mutable and nostalgic, a vessel of migration, memory, solitude, and power.
Pablo Chiereghin’s research focuses on social and political dynamics. His actions, performances, interventions are conceived in dialog with the public and find fertile ground where behaviors and rules cause entropy and discrepancies. Born in 1977 in Adria (Ro), Italy. He graduated in Communication Studies in Bologna. Postgraduate in Photography at Central St. Martins, University of Arts of London.

Ryts Monet (Enricomaria De Napoli), born in Bari in 1982, lives and works in Vienna. He studied at the University IUAV of Venice, where he graduated with a BA in Visual Arts and specialized in Visual Communication through the MA program. In 2022, Ryts Monet became a regular member of the Vienna Secession.
Ryts Monet’s artistic research focuses on the production of images as a means of exploring cultural frictions, monuments, and symbols of power. He is particularly interested in contemporary and late 20th-century history, with a focus on the expansion and crisis of historical ideologies. His practice often incorporates pre-existing materials such as postcards, stamps, banknotes, as well as digital content, newspaper articles, and other found objects.

Analogue photography became her preferred medium of work. Allowing her to stretch the use of the medium from storytelling to abstract photography. Her work investigates the notion of pain, loneliness and sorrow as a multifaceted human condition — one that manifests both inwardly and socially, shaping our understanding of vulnerability and resilience.
