The Red Clothes Project (38 images)

What happens to the clothes you throw into those metal Relais containers found all over Paris? I collected articles of clothing and followed them through the process. Sorted by type, quality, and material, they are resold, re-used, shredded and transformed, or sent to other countries such as Burkina Faso, where they go through this process all over again. Nothing is lost and many are employed along the way.
