In April 2007 Farey travelled to Japan for the first time which inspired her to start developing her wall pieces.
In 2009, her solo show 'Spirit of Air' opened at the Gracefield Art Centre, Dumfries before touring to Edinburgh, Halifax and the Highlands and Islands.
In July 2010, her commissioned piece 'Aerie' went on display on the third floor of the City Arts Centre, Edinburgh.
In July 2011, her willow light installation 'Heart' went on permanent display in the newly refurbished National Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh
Also in 2011, Farey was guest artist at the Cheongju International Biennale in South Korea.
Formerly in the Church of the Resurrection, Gatehouse of Fleet, Kirkcudbrightshire, The Swallows was commissioned by the Graves family in memory of their parents Christopher and Patricia and installed in 2012.[1] Since this church's closure in 1 February 2020 its present whereabouts is unknown.
