Sophia Delakis, a native of Athens, channels the spirit of Greek mythology and history into her mesmerizing artwork. Growing up in a city where ancient ruins coexist with modern urban life, Sophia found herself deeply influenced by the stories of gods, heroes, and creatures that shaped her culture. Her fascination with mythology shines through her creations, which blend classical motifs with contemporary designs.

Sophia’s pieces often feature majestic animals like owls, dolphins, and lions, reimagined as mythical beings surrounded by intricate, symbolic patterns. Her artistic process involves combining traditional oil painting techniques with modern digital tools, resulting in works that feel timeless yet innovative. One of her most celebrated series, Mythic Beasts, explores the spiritual connection between humanity and the animal world, drawing from both ancient texts and personal interpretations.

Sophia has been recognized across Europe for her evocative work, earning the Hellenic Art Prize and exhibiting in galleries from Athens to Berlin. Her pieces have a profound emotional resonance, inspiring viewers to explore the myths and meanings behind them.

For Sophia, art is a way to preserve Greece’s cultural legacy while also reimagining it for the modern world. Her goal is to remind people of the enduring power of stories and the wisdom they carry.
