Mythic Syntax

Okupa, as part of its ongoing collaboration with Domus Gallery, opens its doors to the second exhibition in a rotating series of artists and shows.

Mythic Syntax by Dimitris Ntokos presents a new body of work exploring transformation through a personal system of symbols. Drawing inspiration from ancient Egyptian visual language, his compositions evolve into layered, hieroglyphic-like forms that invite open interpretation rather than fixed meaning.

Description

Dimitris Ntokos is an Athens-based artist whose practice centers on transformation and visual storytelling. With a background in Graphic and Architectural Design, he brings a precise, process-driven approach to composition, color, and technique, often working through layered systems of symbols and forms.

Emerging from the street art scene, his work has evolved from singular motifs into more complex, ideogrammatic compositions, where each element retains its individuality while contributing to a broader visual structure. Influenced by surrealism, his practice embraces metamorphosis as an ongoing process.

Since 2011, his work has been presented in solo and group exhibitions and art fairs across Greece and internationally, including UVNT Art Fair in Madrid. He has also participated as a speaker during Art History Week at the College of Athens.
