Crystal Award | Gallery Ring COLOUR Exhibition | December 2025
Proud to receive the Crystal Award for The Sweetness of Control in Gallery Ring’s COLOUR Exhibition 2025, with two more works honored as Finalists.
I am honored to share that my artwork The Sweetness of Control has been awarded the CRYSTAL AWARD in the COLOUR International Juried Exhibition by Gallery Ring (December 2025).
This distinction celebrates artworks that demonstrate clarity of vision, strong aesthetic cohesion, and compelling use of color. I am deeply grateful for this recognition among so many remarkable international submissions.
About the Awarded Artwork — The Sweetness of Control
The Sweetness of Control is a meditation on elegance as architecture and nostalgia as a quietly commanding force.
Balancing a richly embroidered umbrella adorned with vintage teacups, teapots, and golden spoons, the central figure becomes the embodiment of restraint veiled in ritual. Porcelain and gold hover around her like delicate weapons of etiquette—chosen, placed, and never accidental. Each object functions as both ornament and intention, transforming a familiar moment of tea into a stage of subtle dominance. The refined palette of vintage reds, warm golds, and porcelain blues evokes the ceremonial grace of tradition—where gentleness disguises precision, and tenderness masks control. In this surreal domestic theatre, there is no sugar—only the suggestion of sweetness. Tea time becomes less an indulgence and more a choreography of gesture, grace, and hidden power.
To serve is not to surrender—it is to orchestrate.
Additional Recognitions — COLOUR 2025
Two additional artworks from When Color Knows the Script were honored as Finalists in the same exhibition:
What Falls in Velvet Silence
Whispers and Voices
These distinctions further affirm the narrative, symbolic depth, and evolving international presence of the series.

This distinction highlights artworks that demonstrate clarity of vision, strong conceptual presence, and refined artistic execution.

Gallery Ring · ANIMAL International Juried Exhibition 2025
I am deeply honored to receive the Ruby Award, one of Gallery Ring’s most distinguished recognitions, for my artwork The Ornament of Dawn from the series Rugs & Reverence.
About the Artwork
The Ornament of Dawn captures a moment where light, memory, and heritage converge.
Crimson and gold rise like morning fire on the horse’s face, while floral arabesques and geometric tracings echo the timeless language of woven traditions. In this piece, the horse becomes a living emblem of endurance, beauty, and devotion — a quiet prayer in motion.
About the Series
Rugs & Reverence is a meditation on ancestry and symbolism.
In this collection, animals serve as vessels of remembrance, carrying the woven stories of ancient civilizations. Through digital collage, ornamental pattern, and painterly texture, each work explores how design becomes spirit and how beauty becomes faith.

Awarded the Crystal Award at Gallery Ring’s ANIMAL 2025 Exhibition for The Sapphire Whisper, a work exploring indigo light, sacred geometry, and symbolic quietude.
Gallery Ring · ANIMAL International Juried Exhibition 2025
Honored to receive the Crystal Award for my artwork The Sapphire Whisper, presented as part of the ANIMAL International Juried Exhibition 2025 by Gallery Ring.
About the Artwork
The Sapphire Whisper is an ode to serenity.
Bathed in indigo light, the Arabian horse becomes a symbol of inner stillness and sacred geometry. The blue ornamental tracings evoke the woven artistry of ancient carpets, while a single gemstone reflects the quiet illumination of faith and memory.
It is the whisper of the Silk Road — where movement and myth once intertwined.
About the Series
Part of Rugs & Reverence, this work continues my exploration of animals as carriers of ancestral wisdom.
Through digital illumination and textile-inspired aesthetics, the series investigates how ornament becomes language and how pattern becomes pulse.
My heartfelt thanks to Gallery Ring for this recognition and for celebrating artists across cultures and mediums.

Annita Apostolidou Platis|Ruby Award Recognition|Gallery Ring’s RED 2025| International Juried Contest
Honored to receive the Ruby Award from Gallery Ring (Canada) for my work The Curtain Knows, part of The Luminous Abyss series.
Ruby Award & International Honors for The Luminous Abyss|
Annita Apostolidou Platis
I am deeply honored to share that my artwork The Curtain Knows, from the ongoing series The Luminous Abyss, has received the Ruby Award in the RED 2025 International Juried Contest, organized by Gallery Ring in Ontario, Canada. This recognition, known for celebrating originality, composition, and emotional power, represents a significant milestone in my artistic journey.
About The Curtain Knows
The Curtain Knows is a meditation on the delicate balance between revelation and concealment. Beneath the striped grandeur of a circus-tent crown, the central figure stands as both ringmaster and secret-keeper. Lamps and parasols become silent witnesses, their light uncovering fleeting truths while guarding what remains hidden.
The work reflects the emotional tension between light and darkness, a central theme across The Luminous Abyss. Chandeliers, lampshades, and glowing bulbs are more than decorative details — they act as portals into the soul’s hidden architecture, bridging retro opulence with timeless human vulnerability.
Significance of the Ruby Award
Being recognized with the Ruby Award by Gallery Ring is not only an honor but also a validation of the symbolic language and emotional depth I strive to cultivate in my practice. The award highlights The Curtain Knows for its strong visual presence, originality, and symbolic resonance. Featured in the 3D Rotation Gallery and the official Winners Video, the piece stands among selected works celebrated for their evocative power and technical mastery.
Continuing the Journey of The Luminous Abyss
The year 2025 has brought multiple international distinctions for The Luminous Abyss, affirming its resonance across borders and institutions. Alongside the Ruby Award for The Curtain Knows, the series was also recognized with the Ruby Artist of the Month for The Oracle of Opaline Brass (Gallery Ring, Canada), the Creative Excellence Award for She Who Glows in the Dark (Circle Foundation for the Arts, France), and the Artist of the Month for The Light Dwells in Shadows (Camelback Gallery, USA).
Together, these awards confirm The Luminous Abyss as a cornerstone of my evolving practice — a dreamlike theatre where memory, identity, and symbolism converge into luminous form.

Artist of the Month – May 2025 | Annita Apostolidou Platis | Camelback Gallery
Honored to be named Artist of the Month – May 2025 by Camelback Gallery for my artwork The Light Dwells in Shadows, a digital collage exploring identity, resilience, and the symbolic glow of light within shadow.
🌟 I’m honored to be selected as Artist of the Month – May 2025 by Camelback Gallery! 🌟
My artwork “The Light Dwells in Shadows” was chosen as one of this month’s featured pieces in their international juried showcase.
This mixed media digital collage is a visual meditation on identity, resilience, and the quiet power of introspection. Inspired by the metaphor of vintage lampshades—objects that diffuse light and conceal as much as they reveal—the figure embodies the duality between inner illumination and outward obscurity. A reminder that the most powerful glow often comes from within.
I’m truly grateful to the Camelback Gallery team for this recognition, and send my congratulations to all the incredible artists featured this month.

Golden Trio Award | Gallery Ring | PEOPLE May 2025 | Annita Apostolidou Platis
Thrilled to announce that my series The Era Clockmakers received the Golden Trio Award in Gallery Ring’s PEOPLE Exhibition (May 2025), honoring portraits that blend mythology, innovation, and the timeless quest to reshape time.
Thrilled to announce that I’ve been awarded the Golden Trio Award by Gallery Ring in their May 2025 PEOPLE exhibition.
My series The Era Clockmakers — featuring Clockwork Couturiere, The Elemental Forger, and The Quantum Alchemist — explores the intersection of mythology, innovation, and the human drive to shape time itself.
“Through my series The Era Clockmakers, I explore the timeless interplay between mythology, innovation and human purpose. Each portrait is a symbolic tribute to visionary figures — guardians, inventors and seekers — who navigate fractured realities and re engineer time as a force for transformation. These characters exist between eras, where ancient knowledge converges with imagined futures. In Clockwork Couturiere, time itself becomes fashion, stitched into elegance and memory. The Elemental Forger channels ancestral strength and future vision, forging harmony between cultural heritage and technological power. The Quantum Alchemist stands at the threshold of magic and science, embodying the quest for truth across dimensions. My intention is to honor those who walk alone yet move history forward — visionaries shaping tomorrow not with certainty but with courage. This collection is a call to re-imagine time as both myth and mechanism, driven by the deep belief that every moment can be remade.” — ANNITA APOSTOLIDOU PLATIS

Legends – The Code: The Alchemy of Myth and Modernity | Solo Exhibition by Annita Apostolidou Platis
Honored to present my solo exhibition Legends – The Code: The Alchemy of Myth and Modernity, curated by Sfumato Art Creatives (New York)—a collection of acrylic and digital collage works exploring myth, femininity, and sacred transformation.
Legends – The Code: The Alchemy of Myth and Modernity
Presented by Sfumato Art Creatives, New York
I am truly honored to unveil my solo exhibition “Legends – The Code” in collaboration with the visionary team at Sfumato Art Creatives. This exhibition invites viewers into a mythic realm where ancient symbolism merges with the modern female psyche—transcending time and medium.
Curated as part of Sfumato’s commitment to showcasing bold, narrative-driven contemporary art, Legends – The Code explores femininity through a series of deeply textured acrylic and digital collage works. Each piece emerges from a black canvas—a symbolic void—transformed into a radiant space of rebirth, resilience, and sacred transformation.
The exhibition speaks to the collective mythology of womanhood. Figures draped in symbolic fabrics and adorned with mythic codes embody a spectrum of archetypes: the warrior, the healer, the oracle. My visual language—rich in crimson, gold, and oceanic hues—draws from the spiritual, the sartorial, and the subconscious.
Art, for me, is an alchemical act. It’s where personal memory, myth, and the sacred feminine meet. Through techniques that blend fine art with fashion and esoteric symbolism, I aim to create spaces that do not just depict stories—but awaken them.
I invite you to experience the full virtual exhibition on Sfumato’s website:🔗 Visit the Exhibition
Stay tuned for the upcoming release of the official exhibition catalog.
