To All Who Are Concerned2. Long-Lost Friend3. Close My EyesDuring March and April of 2021, I took part in "Soloss," a community care network developed through a partnership between REACH Edmonton, InWithForward (a Vancouver social design agency), and the City of Edmonton's RECOVER Wellbeing initiative. The team was prototyping the "Losstender" position in Edmonton, based on ethnographic and other research by all of the partners over the previous three years with street-involved Edmontonians."Losstenders" are a constellation of folks who open up spaces for moments of grief to also be moments for connection. Basically, we are artists who sat with and spoke to "Sharers" who told us their stories of life and loss. Thought of another way, a "Losstender" is kind of like the friendly bartender to whom people bare their souls. Three unique people chose to share their stories with me, but I was there to do more than sit and listen. I created a song for each of them as a lasting artifact of our encounters and to help them on their healing journeys, through feeling heard and helping to address unmet needs through song.For more information about Soloss: soloss.caCover art: This is a photo of the top of my mother's headstone, with memory stones. When one visits the grave of a departed loved one in Judaism, we leave a stone to mark that we were there.
