Mount your local filesystem on the remote machine. The opposite of what
you are thinking.
So in other words, follow along.
You do in these:
ssh -X -A remotemachine
shfs -p localmachine $HOMEDIR/data_at_home
cheese &
cheese being your remotely launched X application (cheese only
representative not actual). Cheese could be emacs or screem or some
other application.
Then just access your files as you would normally.
