BENI – Recycled Handicrafts from Nepal
Photos by Chin Cabrido
The
initiative of Beni creates beautiful and practical products from different
trash material. Beni, president of this program, trains women from remote
villages in central Nepal (Lapa, Jarlang, Tipling, Shertung villages) to create
useful products from waste material. The ladies collect, sort, wash and dry
material that is to be found at street, school playgrounds, cinemas and long
the mountain trails of Nepal. They use for example potato chips bags,
chocolate, biscuit or noodle wrappings or big cotton bags from rice. This
material is treated first and then transformed into original and practical
products such as bags, door mats, trays, etc. Based on their own designs, Beni
and her team use the waste to produce a collection of fashionable and
functional products giving a “second life” to rubbish.
Beni shop is found inside Northfield Cafe, Thamel, Kathmandu, Nepal.
