"Community of Grieving" is a multimedia music performance developed by the artists, composers and music producers Zosia Hołubowska and Julia Giertz, who are based in Austria and Sweden. "Community of Grieving" resembles an intimate ritual, a ceremony. It searches for new forms of togetherness and wants to give space to the mourning of what we lost as a collective during the pandemic. The ritual includes sound as well as choreography and an installation arrangement. Musically, the artists refer to the Eastern European tradition of lamentation and the evening liturgy that is part of many Christian rites.
