Golden Trio Award – FLOWER 2026 | Gallery Ring | Rugs & Reverence series by Annita Apostolidou Platis
Awarded the Golden Trio Award at Gallery Ring’s FLOWER 2026 exhibition, Annita Apostolidou Platis presents Remnant, Veil, and Sanctum from her Rugs & Reverence series — works that explore memory, devotion, and cultural continuity through symbolic objects and floral forms.
What a luminous way to begin the new year,
surrounded by gratitude, recognition, and creative intention.
I am deeply honored to receive the Golden Trio Award from Gallery Ring in the FLOWER International Juried Exhibition 2026 for my artworks Remnant, Veil, and Sanctum, from the ongoing series Rugs & Reverence.
This special and rare award is reserved for artists who demonstrate exemplary skill, creativity, and originality across three artworks within a single submission — a recognition that celebrates both artistic consistency and conceptual depth.
My work invites the viewer to see art objects, vintage accessories, and statement garments not as surface decoration, but as a living archive — where heritage, care, and reverence continue to unfold. Floral forms and handcrafted elements become symbolic vessels, carrying personal memory and cultural continuity across time.
The series Rugs & Reverence is structured around two interconnected realms: Creatures of Memory and Objects of Devotion.
The awarded works belong to the Objects of Devotion section, where heirloom references, botanical symbolism, and historic textile influences converge to create quiet altars of remembrance.
Drawing from ancient rugs, historic fabrics, and ornamental traditions, each piece is composed as a quiet act of preservation. Through digital artistry, these objects are reimagined while honoring their ceremonial presence. They are not simply decorative forms, but reflections on what is carried, tended, and remembered.
I extend my sincere gratitude to Gallery Ring for this meaningful recognition and for their continued support of artists worldwide.

Golden Trio Award – BLUE June 2025 | Gallery Ring | Annita Apostolidou Platis
Honored to receive the Golden Trio Award at Gallery Ring’s BLUE International Exhibition 2025 for my works Aokage, Aiyume, and Kansō—a poetic exploration of blue as a language of memory, truth, and introspection.
Golden Trio Award: A Celebration of Emotion Through Blue
I'm deeply honored to have received the Golden Trio Award from Gallery Ring in their international juried exhibition BLUE – May 2025. This rare distinction recognizes the emotional strength and conceptual harmony across my three submitted artworks: Aokage, Aiyume, and Kansō.
Each piece from this new body of work explores the emotional spectrum of blue—not merely as a color, but as a symbolic language of introspection, memory, and truth. Through layered digital collage and symbolic detail, I invite viewers to connect with the quiet power of being, beyond traditional narrative.
🔹 Aokage (Blue Shadow): A gentle silhouette wrapped in memory. Koi, hummingbirds, and blooming anemones drift through stillness like emotional echoes.
🔹 Aiyume (Indigo Dream): A portrait suspended between waking and sleep. Floating koi, birdcages, and oceanic tones evoke surrender and release.
🔹 Kansō (Inner Vision): A study of restraint and perception. A porcelain balloon and tensioned necklace express beauty held in quiet containment.
This award is more than recognition; it’s an affirmation of the emotional storytelling I aim to bring forward through symbolism and visual poetry.
Special thanks to Gallery Ring for their continued support of emerging voices and their dedication to honoring artists globally. My sincere gratitude for this beautiful milestone.
