{"product_id":"anastasia-coope-darning-woman","title":"Anastasia Coope - Darning Woman","description":"\u003cp\u003eDarning Woman is an intentional, beautiful,\r\nsometimes confrontational album that shreds\r\nexpectations of DIY, bedroom music, and feminine\r\nthemes. There's a lushness and maternal instinct at play,\r\nas Coope connects the dots between physicality,\r\nephemera, and the ultrafeminine.\r\n\r\n \"I don't really like to deal that much with themes of\r\npersonal hardships, or heartache and love,\" says\r\nAnastasia Coope. \"Ultimately, I work most honestly\r\nwith the language of what is happening in a moment and\r\nthe passage of time around it. That, coupled with my\r\nreaction to entering the artistic landscape, and my\r\nthoughts about what does and doesn't get\r\nrepresentation, comprises most of this album.\"\r\n Darning Woman explores, among other things, the\r\nmeditative aspect of sewing, patching and\r\nembellishment, care and repair, collection not as\r\nmodern, craven consumption but as a counterpoint to\r\nmaterialism. This sort of collection - the good kind, the\r\ngathering of things to make a home - can be, in Coope's\r\nwords, \"A very baby way to critique capitalism. Birds\r\nmake nests, right? It can be a new life for a thing that\r\nwas made. What you surround yourself with matters.\"\r\n To that end, Anastasia Coope is also the founder and\r\nleader of the Bonzo collective and show series, an\r\nexciting new home for the type of expansive,\r\nprofoundly creative scene that New York has been\r\nmissing for some time. And while Bonzo may well be\r\nthe ascent of a new community, Darning Woman is the\r\nstory of Anastasia Coope, herself. It is the sound of\r\nCoope entering the world as an artist, acknowledging\r\nthe tangle of what changes - the gaze of the world,\r\nCoope's art in reaction and community to art in general\r\n- and what does not: her ideas and her own self.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vinyl.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46873329729697,"sku":"656605245614","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/7038\/5569\/files\/4304797-3133670.jpg?v=1786573695","url":"https:\/\/store.consequence.net\/products\/anastasia-coope-darning-woman","provider":"Consequence Merch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
