Simone Simons Launches Solo Project ‘Aterna’ with Stunning Music Video Directed by Patric Ullaeus
We are delighted to announce the release of the music video for Simone Simons’ solo project, ‘Aterna.’ Known for her powerful presence as the lead vocalist of Epica, Simone has embarked on an exciting new venture, collaborating with the multi-talented Arjen Lucassen.
The video, directed by Patric Ullaeus, explores profound themes of life, the universe, death, and everything in between. This artistic interpretation complements the project’s title, ‘Aterna,’ which is Latin for “eternal.”
Shot against a green screen, the video features surreal 3D worlds that bring the music’s narrative to life. From the vastness of the universe and red planets to eerie dark graveyards, each scene is meticulously crafted to enhance the emotional depth of the song.
Director Patric Ullaeus shared their vision: “I aimed to create a visual experience that resonates with the deep, existential themes of ‘Aterna.’ The 3D environments allowed us to push the boundaries of reality and immerse viewers in a truly otherworldly journey. Working with Simone and Arjen was an incredible journey, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to bring their artistic vision to life.”
The release has been met with overwhelming acclaim, garnering over 600,000 views in its first week. Simone Simons’ ‘Aterna’ is a testament to her versatility and creativity as an artist. While continuing her journey with Epica, this solo project marks a significant milestone in her musical career.
