Three South Asian Canadian women artists gather and create narratives informed by the mythologies and ideologies of their Sikh, Muslim, and Punjabi heritage. Their work investigates, pays homage to and challenges their cross-cultural memories by forging new narratives that straddle Canadian, British, and Indian traditions. Their work includes sculpture, video and installation that immerse the viewer in intimate personal exchanges that are (re)articulated through interventions of the domestic in the gallery space. An essay and an interview are accompanied by numerous color plates.

In his celebrated minimalist sculptures Kai Chan employs materials and techniques that speak to both tradition and modernity. Working with common objects such as thread, twigs and buttons, Chan alters the nature of what constitutes sculpture and what constitutes textiles by transforming elements of the natural world to evoke geographical boundaries and cultural influences. Kai Chan's work is critically received equally within the discipline of textiles and the visual arts in general. He participated in the prestigious 12th International Biennial of Tapestry in Lausanne, Switzerland in 1985, and the equally notable International Triennial of Tapestry in Lodz, Poland in 2001. This 35-year retrospective publication features works created between 1975 and 2010, many of are exhibited here for the first time.

This original monograph devoted to the work of the Palestinian-born artist launches a new contemporary art publisher: Rennie Collection. Mona Hatoum works in a diverse and unconventional range of media, including installations, sculpture, video and photography and her work is most often discussed exclusively in sociopolitical terms. Grenier brings other influences to the surface, notably Surrealism - the first Western art Hatoum discovered as a young girl - and Minimalism - the dominant aesthetic she encountered in art school in London. In exploring these seemingly contradictory impulses, she uncovers artistic and personal concerns that go beyond a simple journalistic reading of Hatoum's artistic career.
