Pause for Peace

The "Pause for Peace" collection by Zaria Gunn is a striking and thought-provoking series of digital watercolors that delves into the delicate balance between mindfulness and technology in the modern world.

"Connected Isolation" - This digital watercolor painting depicts a woman entranced by phone, while another device actively locking her out.

"Second Selfie" - This digital watercolor depicts a portrait of a woman in hues of blue, with distorted strings of code overlaid over her face. It represents the way in which technology has become an extension of our identity and the way we present ourselves to the world. The use of blue hues adds to the sense of detachment and disconnection, while the distorted strings of code represent the fragmented and artificial nature of our online selves. This piece serves as a reminder to consider the role of technology in shaping our identity and to be mindful of the ways in which we present ourselves online.

Meditating Youth This digital watercolor features children in a state of meditation, surrounded by soft, muted colors and a serene landscape by Zaria Gunn

"Connected Parenting" - This digital watercolor depicts a parent and child connected to a digital device, surrounded by flowing lines and soft, muted colors. It represents the challenges and opportunities of parenting in the digital age, where technology can both enhance and disrupt our relationships with our children. The use of muted colors and flowing lines adds to the sense of introspection and reflection, while the depiction of the parent and child connected to their device serves as a reminder of the all-consuming nature of technology.
