GODS is a personal illustration project that reimagines the gods of Greek mythology through a contemporary, approachable, and symbolic visual language. Rather than focusing on classical or historical representations, the project translates these figures into simplified visual systems that highlight their core attributes, personalities, and mythological roles in a more accessible and human way.

Each character is designed as part of a broader modular system, where shapes, symbols, and color codes work together to build a coherent visual universe. This system allows every god to exist both as an individual piece and as part of a larger collective narrative, reinforcing the relationships, contrasts, and hierarchies within Greek mythology.

The project is conceived with adaptability in mind. Beyond illustration, GODS is structured to function across multiple formats, including editorial pieces, collectible card systems, posters, and licensed products. This flexibility transforms the series into a living visual language that can expand and evolve depending on its application.

At its core, GODS is an exploration of how ancient narratives can be reinterpreted through contemporary design thinking—bridging mythology, illustration, and systems-based design into a unified visual proposal.
