Ava
Fedorov

Ava Fedorov is a visual artist, writer, and activist who lives in Boston and Honolulu. With a background that also includes design and film, she pulls from all realms of her creative knowledge to portray disappearing wilderness, haunted geographies, and the implicit nexus that connects internal and external landscapes. She creates large, abstract paintings, multimedia installations, global performance pieces, and conceptually driven arts-based research. Ava’s work has been exhibited, collected, and published internationally and her short fiction has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize and a PEN America award. Ava teaches studio art at Massachusetts College of Art and Design and is also the founder and president of CICADA (cicadaartists.org), an organization committed to amplifying the creative response to environmental justice and the climate crisis.
