About Remy Faint
Sydney based artist Remy Faint explores global and personal histories through painting, assemblage and collage, expanding the idea of painting to create works that could also be considered objects. Faint’s European paternal family studied and worked in schools throughout Central Queensland, where visiting family is reflected on as a meaningful part of his life.
Like many who came to this area seeking new possibilities, Faint’s maternal family immigrated to Australia from the Guangzhou province in China to the Victorian goldfields in 1878. Facing discrimination and economic challenges family decedents spread across Australia, such as working in Sydney markets, frequently trading produce with East Coast and Central Queensland vendors.
