Kobayashi\u2019s personally owned and borrowed found objects along with her artistic interpretations of them. The artist\u2019s collections include a diversity of treasures: a 1950s guide to exercises targeted at young women, a set of hand-made biographical books inscribed by a woman named Mrs.<br>Florence Hazel David Bland, discarded tapes from old answering machines, black and white photographs of rainbows, plastic bags, among other things. In response to these materials, Kobayashi\u2019s interpretative works \u2013 an interactive projection, a choreographed dance routine, illustrations, photographs, and videos \u2013 address themes of loss and memory while infused with the artist\u2019s idiosyncratic humour and penchant for play. Personality Unlimited is an exploration of collecting culture and personal mythologies.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-row-container\"
