Color: An indispensable ally in my artistic creations

Color is more than visual—it’s emotional, cultural, and psychological. In my art, I harness contrasting tones to infuse energy and create captivating palettes that transform each piece into a vibrant dialogue.

Color is a powerful tool in the hands of an artist, and the use of color can have a profound impact on the emotions and perceptions of the viewer. This is because color can elicit a range of emotional responses and associations that are deeply rooted in our psychology and culture.

Colors are often associated with specific emotions and moods, and these associations can vary across cultures and individuals.

By blending contrasting tones I give energy and dynamism into my artworks.

Creating captivating color palettes is Art.

The artist.. An adventurer, a time traveler.

A painter is not just a creator but a traveler of time and imagination—an adventurer weaving emotions and experiences into visual stories. This is me, Annita A.

A painter can be seen as a traveler,

not in the literal sense of exploring new locations, but in the metaphorical journey through the realms of imagination, emotion, and expression. This concept frames the artist as an adventurer, a time traveler, navigating through the vast landscapes of the mind and the world, capturing and transforming these experiences into visual narratives.

This is me - Annita A.

Ένας ζωγράφος μπορεί να θεωρηθεί ως ταξιδιώτης, όχι με την κυριολεκτική έννοια της εξερεύνησης νέων τοποθεσιών, αλλά στο μεταφορικό ταξίδι μέσα από τα βασίλεια της φαντασίας, του συναισθήματος και της έκφρασης. Θα μπορούσε ο καλλιτέχνης να απεικονίζεται ως ένας λάτρης της περιπέτειας , ένας ταξιδιώτης του χρόνου, ο οποίος περιηγείται στα τεράστια τοπία του νου και του κόσμου, συλλαμβάνοντας και μετατρέποντας αυτές τις εμπειρίες σε οπτικές αφηγήσεις.

Studying Fashion is

Fashion goes round in circles. Annita Apostolidou Platis shares how her studies in Milan shaped her artistic vision, blending heritage, couture, and innovation into a timeless dialogue of culture and identity.

Studying fashion offers a comprehensive understanding of the art and science of clothing, from its historical roots to its impact on society and the environment.

Fashion is not merely about garments—it is a cultural narrative, a mirror of identity, and a timeless dialogue between creativity and society. Fashion goes round in circles, yet each return brings with it new layers of meaning, reinterpretation, and innovation.

My own journey began in Athens and later unfolded in Milan, where I studied fashion and jewelry design at the prestigious Marangoni Institute. This experience provided me with both a rigorous foundation in haute couture craftsmanship and a vision of fashion as an evolving art form. Fashion, for me, was never just about fabric or ornament—it was about weaving together heritage, innovation, and storytelling.

Over time, my practice expanded into painting, poetry, and curatorial writing. Yet fashion remained at the core of my artistic DNA, informing my understanding of structure, detail, and aesthetic harmony. Just as a gown requires balance between silhouette and texture, my artworks demand the same dialogue between form and emotion.

In today’s world, fashion continues to reinvent itself. Sustainability, diversity, and technology reshape its boundaries, ensuring its relevance in both artistic and social contexts. For me, fashion is a language—one that communicates elegance, resilience, and transformation. It is a cycle of rebirth that, much like art itself, connects the past to the present while gesturing toward the future.

Fashion goes round in circles…

This is me.

My Art is a Study

Art is my world. In this reflective piece, Annita Apostolidou Platis shares how studying art enriches her life and deepens her understanding of humanity and creativity.

I read. I learn. I am attentive to details. I observe.

I always remember what is important.

For me, art is not simply creation—it is an ongoing study of the human condition, a dialogue between inner reflection and outer expression. Studying art enriches one’s understanding of humanity and the diversity of voices that shape our cultural heritage.

Each brushstroke, each collage, each poetic line becomes part of this study. It is a way of seeing the world more deeply, of noticing the overlooked, and of transforming fleeting impressions into lasting stories.

Art is my world, my greatest teacher, and my constant companion. It teaches me resilience, patience, and the beauty of detail.

This is me.
