Yvetta Fedorova

The Procession

Paper cut installation, 2024

Paper, mylar

Albert Einstein said, "I love to travel but hate to arrive.”

In her installation “The Procession”, Yvetta Fedorova creates a cavalcade of cutout paper characters accompanying each other on a timeless journey. Where they come from and where they are headed is a mystery. Do we lose the sense of self when we join a group or does belonging to it make us feel less vulnerable and more empowered? Can we maintain our individuality? “The Procession” could be a circus parade, a protest, or a funeral cortège. It is an ode to the unpredictable journey of life.

By layering the paper cut by hand, Yvetta Fedorova combines abstract shapes with vaguely recognizable forms and occasional figures to create a feeling of theatricality and movement with her unique and complex characters. Is there an old queen, a wizard, a prisoner, a skull, and other creations in “The Procession”? The viewer is encouraged to create their own associations and perhaps recognize something familiar.

We cannot predict whom we will encounter during our journey and what is lurking around the corner, but the truth is, we are never alone.

As Neil Young said: “Sooner or later, it all gets real. Walk on.”
