Yehia is an accomplished artist whose work embodies a profound sense of nostalgia and longing, influenced by his experiences of exile and distance.
Yehia's upbringing in an artistic family, immersed in the art of handmade paper for over 30 years, had unknowingly set the stage for his fascination with this ancient craft. Even as an 8-year-old Egyptian child, he accompanied his family on a transformative journey to Japan to learn the secrets of washi paper.
Yehia's artistic process involves transforming paper into paint, free from chemicals and safe for both children and professionals. His projects have garnered widespread attention and evoked immense joy, transporting adults back to their childhoods through a profound sense of nostalgia. It is in these moments that Yehia found affirmation that he is on the right path—a path where his art flows from his heart, communicating without the need for words or explanations.
