Welcome to "Legends - the Code"

Welcome to “Legends – The Code,” a powerful art series by Annita Apostolidou Platis. Through ten mixed media digital collages and poems, mythological women are reimagined as symbols of strength, resilience, and timeless influence in today’s world.

New series of artworks by Annita Apostolidou Platis

"Welcome to "Legends – The Code," a series of ten mixed media digital collages that bridge the past with the present by weaving the tales of mythological women whose stories of strength, resilience, and power echo through the ages. Following my previous collection, "Links," which explored the connectivity between women, nature, mythology, and history, this new series delves deeper into the personas of legendary women who have shaped cultural narratives about femininity and fortitude.

Each artwork, accompanied by a poem, forms a narrative woven from the vibrant threads of ancient mythology, reimagined through a modern lens. As you engage with each piece, you are invited to decode the hidden messages embedded within the canvases, enriching your appreciation of these powerful narratives. This exploration is not merely an artistic journey but a cultural dialogue, enhancing our understanding of how these legendary figures continue to influence contemporary life.

Through this series, I aim to celebrate the legendary past while drawing meaningful parallels to the experiences of modern women, illustrating that the core of human experience remains constant even as contexts change."

"Bridging Worlds" The Interplay of Art and Poetry in My Creative Journey

In the final part of Bridging Worlds, Annita Apostolidou Platis reflects on the fusion of art and poetry—encouraging creators to embrace complexity, uncharted territories, and the transformative interplay of words and images.

Part 4.

“To anyone who feels drawn to both art and poetry, my advice is simple: embrace the complexity. Let your creative passions fuel one another, and don’t be afraid to let them lead you into uncharted territories. It is there, in the spaces between, that true artistry is born.” - Annita A.


Grateful for every moment of inspiration and for the opportunity to share these reflections through my work and collaborations, such as the upcoming Art Poetry Book, on October 30th.

This project has allowed me to once again merge the visual with the verbal, showcasing not just my own voice but also the collective voice of a diverse group of artists and poets brought together by the Barbagelata Contemporary Art Foundation @barbagelatafoundation .


As we reach the conclusion of my statement, I encourage all aspiring and established creators to embrace the interplay of art and poetry in their own works. This journey of creation is as challenging as it is rewarding, and it is within these intricate blends that we find new ways to express the inexpressible. Continue to explore, create, and inspire. Thank you all, and stay tuned for the Art and Poetry Book which will be available on October 30th.

"Bridging Worlds" The Interplay of Art and Poetry in My Creative Journey

In Bridging Worlds – Part 3, Annita Apostolidou Platis reflects on vulnerability, openness, and the transformative dialogue between poetry and visual art—where each form informs and elevates the other.

Part 3.

“This artistic endeavor demands a vulnerability and openness to let inspiration flow freely, whether it be a line of poetry or a color palette. The challenge lies not only in the creation itself but in allowing these different expressions to inform and transform one another. It’s about letting the visual narrative influence the poetic and vice versa, crafting a richer story that neither could tell alone.” - Annita A.

Join me in the next part of our discussion as I share insights into the profound impacts these intertwined creative forms have on both the creator and the audience. The journey continues—stay tuned!

It’s a dance of contrasts and harmonies where each piece does not just coexist but converses deeply with the other." - Annita A.
