Kobayashi\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s works involve the conjuring of stories from found objects. Allegories are resurrected by the artist\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s imagination as she interrogates materials as varied as the world wide web, lost letters, and vintage audio and video tapes. Often in her works, Kobayashi performs a cast of characters that she imagines are connected to these objects, telling their stories with equal parts humor and sensitivity. Though her performances are cheeky, she does not make fun of her subjects but rather teases out what is universal: our awkwardness, our desire to be love and be loved, and our wish to do good&#8211;to be better. For her screening she will present a number of works including\u00c2\u00a0<em>From Alex to Alex<\/em> (2006),\u00c2\u00a0<em>Hungry Kitty <\/em>(2011),\u00c2\u00a0<em>DO GOOD Percy<\/em> (2009),\u00c2\u00a0<em>Personality Unlimited <\/em>(2015),\u00c2\u00a0<em>DO GOOD Ray<\/em> (2009),\u00c2\u00a0<em>Just Relax<\/em> (2016) and\u00c2\u00a0<em>Music is Magic<\/em> (2016).
