Brought up in her father, Master Ricky Cheung’s mahjong factory, Karen Aruba is now an illustrator, dedicating most of her time to promote the art of mahjong carving. She established the brand Karen Aruba Art to encourage younger generations to understand the value of this precious craftsmanship and to learn the history and culture of Hong Kong through it. In 2020, Karen and her father founded The Art of Mahjong Craft Studio, aspiring to draw attention on traditional hand-carved mahjong and its sustainable development. Karen has curated several exhibitions related to the art of mahjong that have received extensive coverage in the local and overseas media, leading Hong Kong mahjong design and craftsmanship to gain attention in the international arena.
