I'd certainly avoid any direct rendering here (e.g. "as initiator")
either:
- In 2005 she realized her idea of creating/founding XX ...
or:
- Her foundation/inception of XX in 2005 saw the realization of her idea for a platform providing ...
- Her foundation of XX in 2005 saw her bring to life her idea for a platform providing ...
- In 2005 she founded XX, thereby realizing her idea of a platform ...

(but there are alternatives to "realize" and "idea")

founder

XXX founded the AR't... in 2005, a platform that offers artists the opportunity to present their own work and (to) meet with other artists.
Good luck!
