This piece was painted in 2014 whilst Sharon was living in Doha, Qatar and is part of her Freedom Series. Given the cultural constraints of living in a strict muslim country Sharon was drawn to images that conveyed the freedom to move, to express oneself and to feel free of restrictions. This painting is an interpretation of a photograph of Sydney Dance Company performers. The work originally had a yellow background featuring abstract florals but was reworked a year later when Sharon felt a more simplistic background would highlight the sensitivity of the dancers.
