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 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. 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.

    There's a patch of old snow in a corner
    That I should have guessed
    Was a blow-away paper the rain
    Had brought to rest.

    It is speckled with grime as if
    Small print overspread it,
    The news of a day I've forgotten--
    If I ever read it.
