Ryts Monet (Enricomaria De Napoli, Bari 1982) lives and works between Vienna and Venice. He studied at the IUAV University of Venice, graduating with a degree in Visual Arts and a specialisation in Visual Communication. Since 2022, he has been a 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 history and the late 20th century, with a specific focus on the expansion and crisis of historical ideologies. Her practice often incorporates pre-existing materials such as postcards, stamps, banknotes, as well as digital content, newspaper articles and other found objects.
