biography

Fi creates one of a kind upcycled garments under the brand SLUGMOTH. SLUGMOTH is a project in recycling, composting, rebirthing. It is slow, conscious, ethical fashion as a medicine against the industry of fast and disposable fashion. It is small scale offerings, direct from the maker. Everything is made in Fi's home studio in beautiful Katoomba. Fi's work could be described as mixed media collaging meets textile craft experiments expressed as wearable art. They make gender neutral clothing items through a process of stitching, sewing, painting, printing and repurposing garments into new life. Fi has a history in fashion design, set and costume design, and architectural design. Also an illustrator, they have explored many mediums of art making and creating. They are led back time and time again to working with textiles. SLUGMOTH has been a space for the meeting of Fi's many artistic avenues, a place where they can create playfully and intuitively, making creations that mirror varying iterations of self. Offerings are sold through their website SLUGMOTH.COM. Fi is also available for custom clothing design and creation, as well as costume design and illustration projects.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF NGURRA

The City of the Blue Mountains is located within the Ngurra (Country) of the Dharug and Gundungurra peoples. MTNS MADE recognises that Dharug and Gundungurra Traditional Owners have a continuous and deep connection to their Country and that this is of great cultural significance to Aboriginal people, both locally and in the region. For Dharug and Gundungurra People, Ngurra takes in everything within the physical, cultural and spiritual landscape – landforms, waters, air, trees, rocks, plants, animals, foods, medicines, minerals, stories and special places. It includes cultural practice, kinship, knowledge, songs, stories and art, as well as spiritual beings, and people: past, present and future. Blue Mountains City Council pays respect to Elders past and present while recognising the strength, capacity and resilience of past and present Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the Blue Mountains region.
