-
- Self-Improvement
Aunia Kahn's work in trauma and mental health has grown over the years and has created a launching pad for the Healing Art Creatively Program. Art and trauma-related work first came together as a passion and purpose with her career’s first exhibition Voices Within Surviving Through the Arts (St. Louis Artist Guild 2005) where her art took on subjects of abuse and trauma and was awarded for her endeavors.
Later, she was invited for consecutive years as a panelist for the Washington University School of Medicine’s MOHOP (Mental Health Outreach Program) and has regularly been a guest lecturer at Southwestern Illinois College speaking abuse, trauma and medical trauma. With her interest to create a supportive and interactive tool to support people working through trauma and adversity, she authored the “Inspirations for Survivors” deck.
She has also worked as a mentor at OSLP Art & Culture Program, collaborating one-on-one with students who have developmental disabilities on projects and assisted the program in building their student’s portfolios. As a curator, she has curated exhibitions focusing on trauma and mental health such as Darkest Dreams a Lighted Way (2008) and Empathic: A Mental Health Awareness Exhibition (2016) and Touch By Violence (2013).
She continues her work in the field teaching courses, offering free resources, and providing tools to those that need. Her work has been in over 300+ exhibitions in over 10 countries; at places such as San Diego Art Institute, Los Angeles Center for Digital Art, iMOCA, St. Louis Art Museum, Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, Mitchell Museum, and the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art.
She has also been on podcasts like Entrepreneur on Fire, with 70 million downloads & 1 million monthly listens.
Aunia has curated several internationally recognized books and projects.
