The intrinsic philosophy that underpins Yahya’s diverse work is an obsessive attention to detail and a quest for exceptional craftsmanship. Lasers and machines that reduce costs and lead-times, yet steals from art its soul and humanity, are shunned in order to resurrect and preserve forgotten ancestral savoir-faire, whilst also developing new and innovative techniques. The essence of Yahya's approach is to treat everything of equal importance, from the smallest of details through to the largest of concepts. He believes in timeless beauty and is oblivious to the dictates of fashion, trends or tradition, happy to fuse, develop and create afresh a style that breaks down cultural and national boundaries.
