A medium shot of Gloria Asiama, known as "Auntie Gloria," the section leader of an upcycling space at Kantamanto Market. She is looking slightly off-camera with a focused expression. She wears a bright green short-sleeved shirt patterned with small white and yellow flowers and large silver hoop earrings. The background shows the blurred, busy environment of an indoor market workspace with blue and red chairs, clothing, and other people engaged in work.

Gloria Asiama (Auntie Gloria)

When we open the bale, it is just not enough. You would find out some of the clothes torn, … some stained by paint, some just looked like they were used to clean in a warehouse and such things were all lumped into one bale and sent to us. All this was causing me to run at a loss. Money I had saved up over some number of years began to get exhausted.
