Writer
Most of Tamruja’s works are written in Thai, with a focus on social impact and contemporary culture. Her latest poetry book, Sunrise Catcher, was recently shortlisted for the prestigious S.E.A. Write Award 2025. It presents the journeys of a storyteller travelling across Thailand, capturing the lives and landscapes of each region through close engagement with local communities.
Sunrise Catcher is also the only experimental poetry title selected to represent Thailand at the Taipei International Book Exhibition 2026.
She also translates two Winnie-the-Pooh poetry books into Thai poetry, published by Read 101 Publishing. Her wider portfolio includes essays and articles on art criticism, sustainability, and environmental issues.
