MOMus, still socially active and in the present condition, recommends selected works exclusively from its collections and exhibitions in its online program "MOMus Resilience Project". At the same time, MOMus wants to be closer to the people who work, create, express themselves through their homes, and recommends aspects of "home", that is home life, as artists have perceived it to be in tempore non suspecto.

Alex Mylona captures the circular shape of the sun in a square frame, in a composition based on the purity of simple geometry. The artist emphasizes on the symbolic dimension of her subject, in order to refer to the concepts of life and birth; at the same time, she refers to her favorite landscape, that of Cyclades. It is the sun that comes to drive away darkness and fear, promising hope for a new day; it is the sun, associated with ancient myths, beliefs and cosmogonies, religious events and philosophical theories, spiritual and artistic pursuits and achievements. [Alex Mylona, Sun, 1998, Athens, marble, 77 x 77 x 77 cm, MOMus -Museum Alex Mylona]
