Zosia Hołubowska on "Community of Grieving" – We are Europe Meets #10

In 2020, when Poland was alternating between COVID lockdowns and protests for women’s rights, musical artists and performers Zosia Hołubowska (aka Mala Herba) & Julia Giertz unveiled a remotely lived mourning experience named “Community of Grieving”. A collective listening creation meant to be experienced at home, in solitude. The experience aimed to bring a moment of closure to damaged souls, who had been rocked by this year’s event. Some had lost jobs, some had lost friends and family members, all needed a moment to externalize the pain of loss. In 2021, Zosia Hołubowska & Julia Giertz proposed an in-person live rendition of the experience, as part of Unsound’s musical programme. We met with Zosia Hołubowska minutes after her performance, to talk about this project, and the importance of grief.
