Faber's films have been nationally and internationally exhibited. Her first film, Children of God, was the 1st place grant winner of the Wonder Women Short Film Competition held at the Pen and Brush Gallery, NYC.

Faber's animation, Living Organics, was screened at the George Eastman House Museum of Photography and nominated for best domestic animation at the Queens International Film Festival. Solo exhibitions of Living Organics and its accompanying photographic series, 09.01.29, have been exhibited in Minneapolis and Altoona, PA.

As part of the Midwest Photographers Project, Faber's animation and photographic series is in the temporary collection of The Museum of Contemporary Photography, Chicago.

Currently, Faber is working on a combined stop motion animation and live motion short film titled The Hidden. This project is being funded in part from an Artist Intuitive Grant in Media Arts from the MN State Arts Board and a faculty research grant through St Cloud State University.

Faber will open her latest photographic series, Completely Human, at the October 4 Photographer of the Month Lecture at the Center for Photography at Madison.
