Paintings move.
Sculptures stand.
Both remember.
El Salvador Pavilion - La Biennale di Venezia 2026
“We are all Children of the World, and love is the only thing all nations should embrace: only what unites us, nothing that divides.”
Oscar Molina’s Stages of Love collection explores love as a journey of emotion, growth, and transformation. Through expressive color and movement, the works reflect the beauty, vulnerability, and strength found in human connection.
VALUES & PRINCIPLES COLLECTION
Oscar Molina’s Values and Principles collection reflects on the moral foundations that guide human life: humility, strength, compassion, and integrity. Through bold form and expressive color, the works invite viewers to consider what we carry within us and what truly defines who we are.
Oscar Molina’s Tulips collection celebrates renewal, beauty, and quiet resilience. Through vivid color and expressive movement, the works transform the flower into a symbol of hope, emotion, and connection.
CHILDREN OF THE WORLD COLLECTION
J. Oscar Molina’s Children of the World as a powerful reflection on migration, memory, and belonging. Through silent sculptural figures cast in concrete, copper, and bronze, the exhibition transforms displacement into a meditation on endurance, resilience, and the shared human search for home.
"I had to walk in the desert... I could see the silhouettes of people in front of me, but I couldn't see their faces."
With these words, J. Oscar Molina introduces us to the heart of his "Children of the World." This collection, documented in the film "Children of a Dream," is a spiritual and physical procession born from his own journey to the United States.
The work is a memorial to the faceless, the unseen, and the brave. Each sculpture stands as a testament to the vitality and power of the human spirit, reaching skyward in a collective, resilient gesture of hope. It is an exploration of our shared humanity, mortality, and the indelible dream of a better world.
