About this Author

Arounna Khounnoraj is a Canadian artist and maker based in Toronto, where she emigrated with her family from Laos at the age of four. While her education includes a Masters in fine arts, it was through subsequent residencies that she found her current focus in fibre arts. In 2002 she started Bookhou, a multi-disciplinary studio with her husband John Booth. Together they explore a variety of printing and embroidery techniques through making utilitarian objects such as bags, home goods and textiles. She has previously published Punch Needle (2019), Embroidery (2022) and Winter Celebrations (2023) with Quadrille.
