They will cut, re-shape, stitch together, add volume and depth to otherwise anonymous pieces of cotton, providing them with a new identity.
The women will give life to all sorts of items from bags to dresses, from hats to necklaces, from purses to hairbands. They have also developed a collection of wild animals, like giraffes and elephants, that watch you from the shelves.
Discovering our creativity makes us happier individuals, I believe, but the smiles of those women in Nyamirambo, that I captured on my camera and saw with my own eyes – those smiles feel different.
