Notes
-- Text --
"Handwerke -- Songs for My Fathers" deals with the personal story of the artist. Simon's biological father, Robert, was a Jazz musician and died before his birth. Simon was raised by his father Christian. This album is therefore a vividly emotional way for him to explore topics like death, fatherhood, family, identity and belonging. The story is told using audio-samples taken from the Wim Wenders movie "Paris, Texas", which are positioned as a loose story line in between the songs. This layer is the first connection to the visual -- to film in particular -- which is then expanded through accompanying images and video-works. Simon Lovermann invited 16 artists to contribute an image that reflects their own personal (artistic) identity, with the intention of bringing together a variety of different, deeply individual exploration of the self."
-- Instruments & Percussion --
