The Leathersellers presents: Outsider Craft with Yusuf Osman, a podcast that seeks to rediscover the purpose and meaning of craft, as we navigate complex issues that we face as a society, and as individuals.
After years of making and teaching, Yusuf Osman, former lawyer, now artisan leatherworker and designer finds himself at a creative and spiritual point of inflection. With the help of fellow artisans and creatives, Yusuf asks what it means to be a craftsperson in the modern day and if craft can help us achieve the lives we want to live.
This podcast was produced by the Leathersellers.

We're all craftspeople
"Leather is the first form of architecture" - so says Minh Le Pham, an architect and leather artist who blurs the line between art and life by using his home as a studio and gallery. Yusuf and Minh discuss how we are all craftspeople: crafting life, relationships, living spaces. It is the job of craft to help us define and refine these boundaries.
