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.

Defence is one of the Alex Mylona's compositions with which she participated in the Venice Biennale of 1960. It is an abstract artwork made of hammered iron; it is characterized by frontality, sharp ends and a balanced arrangement of flat surfaces. Defence is a symbolic wall, a metaphor of resistance, as well as protection and endurance in difficult and extreme conditions and situations.
