CDS and Sunweaver Communities At the MoCA Fimi Exhibit Opening

   

How many people in Second Life are remembered after over a decade since they left? For the Sunweaver community, Artistic Fimicloud, artist and Relay for Life volunteer, is still well remembered thirteen years after her passing last month. A few days ago, an exhibit at the Confederation of Democratic Simulator's art museum with some of her paintings (and two other artists) opened. The opening party was attended not just by locals, but by members of Fimi's home community as well. It made for no shortage of conversation.

Ground Fl: Retrospective of Artistic Fimicoloud's work
"Fimi" was the avatar for the real-life artist and cancer survivor, Stephanie Koslow. Her subject matter was her beloved Hudson River Valley, rendered in pastels.

"My art, my life, is about looking forward, never looking back – looking back serves no purpose but to break one’s heart when you’re walking a path as difficult as some of us do. So instead I look forward – to that next beautiful sunset on the river."
Artistic Fimicoloud

Remembering Fimi

Saturday May 26 was the tenth anniversary of the passing of a noted member of the Sunweaver community, as well as the Passionate Redheads Relay for Life team: Artistic Fimicloud. Known as "Fimi" to her friends, she is still fondly remember. The party at Club Cutlass that evening was in her honor, the theme being "Pink For Fimi."

Many of the women, and a couple of the men, wore pink or partially pink outfits. Sabine Mcettigan, who ran the Readheads, was among those appearing at the party. DJ Snowbuns provided the music for the party. Among the songs was "Calypso," which was a favorite of Fimi.

There were a few items up for display, such as a Fimi Award given out by the Redheads, made in the image of a pink fox, Artistic being an anthro pink vixen. A little more about Fimi can be read in the article of the events in May 2017. Although she's been gone for years, and the Redheads folded, the Sunbeamer taking it's place, she is still fondly remembered.

Remembering Artistic Fimicloud

It was nine years ago last week that the "little pink fox" of the Sunweaver community and the Passionate Redheads team of the Relay for Life, Artistic Fimicloud passed away from cancer. Since then, the Redheads, and then the Sunbeamers have held memorial events in remembrance of "Fimi" as she was often called. This year, there were two events at the Happy Vixen and Club Cutlass. It was a chance for those who knew her to remember and a chance for more recent people to get to know who she was.
