BIOGRAPHY
Aunia Kahn was born December 5th, 1977 and raised in Detroit, MI. While growing up in an explosive and unpredictable home environment she sought refuge through creativity in art, music and acting. She never entertained the idea to publically share her tremendously personal and private work, until her path changed in 2003 when she started a very intimate series to help advance herself through the healing process of child abuse.

By 2005, a good friend suggested she share her artistic vision with the world in attempts that others may find their own solace, and thereby also bringing herself to another level of healing by opening up. Initially extremely put off by the idea, she changed her mind with hopes for a better future for herself and others. That December her career officially launched with her first exhibition which garnered immediately interest in fine art gallery showings across the United States and internationally. Kahn’s work has been shared with the public in hundreds of showings to date.

Kahn's work combines many disciplines, wrapping them into one hybrid art form melding photography, painting and collage. Each work makes use of her own likeness in movie-like stills of elegant decadence, varied taboo and often controversial subject matter to challenge the viewer, their understanding and preconceived notions; yet she connects through honest feeling and emotions. She invariably designs, builds, and executes characters, non-existent places, dreams, illusions, fears and fables into creation. Aunia Kahn’s work is constantly growing and changing shape, earlier works dealt more with her past, while her more recent series delves into present emotional conflicts and inspirations.

Aunia’s images, likeness and presence have been featured, interviewed and seen on FOX News LA, REFUSED Magazine, Celebrity Artist Michael Bell Radio Show, Juxtapoz On-line, Devolution Magazine (UK), Grab Magazine (Italy), Crawling Tunes Magazine (Germany), SNAP Magazine (UK), Rimfrost Magazine (Norway) and Forbidden Whispers Magazine (UK) which are but a small sampling of her exposure. In 2007 Le Bourgeois Vineyards featured “Rousing the Whirlwind” on a limited edition collectors series of bottled wines.

She also creates music, lyrics, and words for the band AfterChain, is a graphic and web designer, and the creator of the Silver Era Tarot card deck. Aunia currently resides in Illinois with her 4 German Shepherds and 2 black cats in her secret closet.

    Thanks adding me. You are very talented and it's great that you let emotions play a huge part in your work. They are amazing.

    Just because you're grown up, doesn't mean you don't need someone to confide in. In fact, logic dictates that the opposite is true. Life becomes more complex and difficult as we get older. The people that we confide in as adults are very valuable. We usually choose our friends based on common interests that we share. We may have different friends for the variety of activities that we engage in. The important thing is that there is sense of mutual respect, and caring for each other.
    Smile!
    Have a wonderful day my dear friend!
    Peace and love always

    Sincerely John

    Life and nature are similar concepts because nature is the study of how life acts and interacts within the circle of existence. When we take the time to examine the beauty of the world around us, we are able to see parallels within our own lives. One who is attuned with nature is attuned with the practice of living. All of nature moves in a spiral as do our personal lives. It is important to spend time in nature because in this way we can become attuned to its wisdom.
    Wishing you a very beautiful week dear friend,full of smiles,love and all thing's Great!
    Smile!
    Peace and love always!
    Thank you for being a very wonderful friend!


    Sincerely John

    In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit. ~Albert Schweitzer

    Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
    By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore.
    "Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou," I said, "art sure no craven,
    Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the Nightly shore
    Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!"
    Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore."
