Simon Faithfull lives and works in London and Berlin. His work often centres on journeys, whether proposed or actually undertaken. These are made in a variety of media, including digital drawings and online projects, as well as film and video.
Faithfull travelled to Antarctica with the British Antarctic Survey on an Arts Council fellowship, sent a chair into space with a live video feed and has recently completed a major permanent public art commission for the city of Liverpool which documents a trip from Liverpool, UK to Liverpool, Canada.

He has exhibited in many venues internationally, with solo presentations including British Film Institute Gallery and Chisenhale Gallery, London; Stills, Edinburgh; and CCA, Glasgow. His work has also been shown at LABoral, Spain; Haus Am Waldsee, Berlin; and Kunsthalle Freiburg, Switzerland. Faithfull is represented by Parker’s Box, New York and Galerie Polaris, Paris.
