My 2020 Lockdown Project Paperback – July 13, 2022
by Carlos Simpson (Author)
After spending the year 2019/2020 capturing the views, feelings, and hopes of people of all ages and diverse cultures living through challenging times of the COVID-19 lockdown including myself I’ve decided to express my thoughts and feelings through something new. So, I challenged my usual way of thinking as well as the creative process (“in the moment”) improvising music with the aim to create freely and spontaneously.
Being a self-taught musician helped me to be creative without limits, it was a fun and interesting process to learn at the same time as making.
Let’s not forget the project rules:
The rules and restrictions of the project were imposed by the very confinement stipulated by the governments. For example, the absence of human contact, missing friends and family, the stress, and all the negativity created by this whole event. Now after some time as a result and seeing the results, I must admit that those restrictions were beneficial to the project.
As a result, one Book and four music albums arose:
3, Tribal Soul
All of them were released at the end of the year 2020 around Christmas time. All the images in this book were painted also during the Covid19 lockdown with a specific medium and technique as part of the “My 2020 Lockdown Project“
