Ungrievable Lives
The installation ‘Ungrievable Lifes’ by British artist Caroline Burroway inspired composer Charlotte Bray to create her work of the same name: 13 children's dresses, hand-sewn from the life jackets of refugees, collected at the “Lifejacket Graveyard” in Lesvos, Greece: each dress represents one million of the 13 million children on the run worldwide.

Charlotte Bray's work ‘Ungrievable Lifes’ consists of 13 movements - one movement for every waistcoat, one phrase for every million refugee children.
The young Castalian String Quartet premiered the work in 2023 and continues to include it in its program - as a reminder not to forget the fate of these children.
