Slow Stories: A Collaboration of Storytelling, Music, and Art
Slow Stories Limited Edition Vinyl, Painting, & Book
Combining narrative, music, and painting, Slow Stories is a collaboration between Bette A. and Brian Eno, based on Bette A.’s short story collection of the same name. For the vinyl, Brian Eno’s ambient compositions accompany Bette A.’s voice as she tells two stories from the book—"The Endless House” and “The Other Village.” Together, the artists paint individual canvases to accompany each book and record in the bundle, extending the narrative landscape into an ethereal visual realm.
Each bundle includes:
-
Slow Stories by Bette A. (Jacketed Hardcover, 176 pages)
-
2 Slow Stories vinyl record (12-inch, white vinyl, with gatefold jacket featuring original music from Brian Eno and narration by Bette A.)
-
Original painting on canvas board, by Bette A. and Brian Eno, numbered and signed by both artists (20 cm x 20 cm)
This is a strictly limited edition of 444 bundles (not available digitally).
The artists' proceeds of the sale of the bundle will go to their charities: The Heroines! Movement, a global storytelling movement around women role models, co-founded by Bette; and Earth Percent, a charity that channels funds from the music industry to organizations that do the most impactful work around the climate emergency, co-founded by Brian.
