Katerina Dendrinou

A guide to Ithaca that connects the present with the past.

In a land where myth and history intertwine with the silence of the landscapes and the voices of its people, Katerina Dendrinou creates something far greater than a printed guide — she offers a cultural mirror of Ithaca.

Her advertising catalogue, inspired by the valuable work “Ithaca: Past and Present”, is a multidimensional project that honors the island’s heritage while illuminating its contemporary life, giving space to all those who keep its heartbeat alive.

Architectural features, historical photographs, recordings of customs and social structures, traditional professions, as well as modern businesses, creators, and professionals of Ithaca coexist within its pages. Through this rich tapestry, the timeless identity of the island is revealed: a living organism with a past that inspires and a present that confidently seeks its place in the future.

The catalogue serves simultaneously as a cultural archive, a tool for tourism promotion, and a valuable network for local entrepreneurship.

“Ithaca: Past and Present” is addressed to travelers in search of authentic experiences, to researchers exploring Ionian heritage, and to locals who wish to see their island represented with respect and substance.
