In 2005, Kuta edited and published a limited edition book which was intended to bring together voices from around the world as a response to the tragic tsunami on Boxing Day 2004. ''Paint the Sky with Stars'' features a collection of poetry written by people affected by the Tsunami which caused so much damage in South East Asia. People from all sectors of society contributed to the anthology and the poetry is unique and reflective of the poets' thoughts surrounding this devastating natural disaster. All of the proceeds generated by the publication were donated to the Tsunami Earthquake Fund, and this book is now highly regarded as a valuable insight into social history. It is studied during several university degree courses.

The book, ''My Life in Pictures'' is a photographic portfolio published in 2018. an autobiographical photo-biography which covers the life of a gay man over a period of four decades.
