One purim in 2011, she met two entrepreneurs on a bench on Rothschild who changed her life and inspired by them, Sharonna started to part time work on a start up and officially in 2014 Dreame launched.

Over 10,000 artworks have been co-created in over 50 countries so far. Dreame is democratising the art world, creating a new genre of art and enabling everyone to become a creator and commissioner of art with their own imagination.
She is the creator of The Big Dream installation in Rabin Square: the largest artwork in the world puzzled out of yoga mats envisioning the future of Israel, and then the same installation in Jerusalem with a guided visualisation for thousands of participants in Hebrew & Arabic guiding them to the future of co-existent Jerusalem.
