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.

Can words express the size of our emotions? How can our actions highlight the significance and the range of events? The Greek sculptor Alex Mylonas (1923-2016) illustrates the word LOVE, creating a great work in public space. Four white elements compose the sculpture entitled "LOVE" (1986, iron, 270X300 cm), located outside the MOMus - Μουσείο Σύγχρονης Τέχνης / Museum of Contemporary Art, inside the TIF-HELEXPO fair grounds. Three capital letters are presented in their entirety, while the letter P (Π in greek) is implied, as it is formed by the vertical sides of the other letters. No matter how you attempt to 'read' the work, it is sure to signify the profound human nature of the work of the creator, as she has said, "life does not fit into the work of art, it is found, it exists within it".
