‘Break Free’ features Freddie Mercury as he appeared in the ‘I Want to Break Free’ video—an image that has come to represent courage, playfulness, and defiance all at once. The portrait honors Mercury not only as a performer, but as a figure whose openness and self-expression continue to resonate across generations.
Created as a commissioned gift, the work carries a spirit of admiration and solidarity. It reflects the joy and impact of visibility, and the way art and music can become rallying points for identity, freedom, and belonging.
Part of my Defining Auras body of work, ‘Break Free’ celebrates expression as liberation—and remembrance as an act of love.
