Like all Tongan women, Fielakepa first became aware of the art of ngatu at an early age by watching her grandmother and a group of friends making it. It was not until 1959, as a married woman, that she learned the art of barkcloth and discovered local variations in practices and the meanings of some of the designs and symbols used in the different islands of Tonga. She has been instructing women's groups on various techniques since then. Her research is featured in the 2014 UNESCO anthology Traditional Knowledge and Wisdom: Themes from the Pacific Islands, as well as in Tapa: From Tree Bark to Cloth: An Ancient Art of Oceania, from Southeast Asia to Eastern Polynesia by Michel Charleux.
