Charlotte Bray Ungrievable Lives
Ungrievable Lives is Bray’s first work for String Quartet, and is a response to the current migration crisis, inspired by the work of British artist, Caroline Burraway, who reflects on the crisis within her work. Having witnessed the situation first-hand at refugee camps in the Mediterranean, Burraway’s installation comprises 13 children’s dresses handmade from discarded refugee lifejackets gathered at the ‘Lifejacket Graveyard’ in Lesvos, Greece. Each dress represents one million of the 13 million child-refugees there are worldwide. They signify ‘absence’, evoking memories of a former life, of family, of love and, ultimately, of loss. Bray’s piece received its world premiere in March 2022.
