Sharon writes:

This painting of mine called "Habohab" in Filipino Visayan Language which means "Sharp Attack" belongs to my Series of Painting exhibited last July 2009 entitled "Babaye" or "Women". This work is inspired by women's struggles and pain from bodily attacks such as harm and abuse in cases of domestic violence and rape. I do a lot of Art workshops for healing young women victims of rape and violence here in the Philippines, some kind of Art Therapy, and in a way helps me to overcome some of my personal struggles and pains in my workplace.
