I love when old myths are reinterpreted for our modern age, giving them fresh relevance and giving us new insights. The Greek pantheon of deities was the subject of a modern photoshoot not long ago called 20 Gods and Goddesses for 2020. Creative director Mario Ville, photographer Ana Martinez, and their team gave them all a divine makeover, mixing traditional symbols with modern anachronisms, to create a stunning series of photos using a colour palette of black, white and gold.
These are my selected favourites, but you can see the full photoshoot by clicking here.
