Annita Apostolidou Platis is honored to announce that her digital artwork Uncharted Muse received an Honorable Mention at the prestigious 9th COLOR International Juried Art Competition, hosted by TERAVARNA Art Gallery in July 2025. The competition featured 357 artists from 43 countries, highlighting visionary creators in all mediums.

About the Artwork: Uncharted Muse
Part of the Summer chapter from the Seasons Limited Edition – A Time of Voyage and Inner Freedom, Uncharted Muse blends memory, myth, and dreamlike seascapes in a luminous mixed media digital collage. The central figure, adorned with a vintage floral bathing cap, floats through a surreal space of lifebuoys, starfish, and retro playballs—symbols of resilience, nostalgia, and subconscious navigation. The work explores the idea of the feminine as both guardian and wanderer, inviting viewers into an intimate, transformative experience shaped by light and color.
