New Gender Bending Strawberry :
is the project aims to express the futuristic indistinguishable creature that is characterised as a similar visuality to be camouflaged in the society. Kobayashi represents mixed media installation which is integrated with the performance to reflect on the earthly condition and reveal the ironic situation to have both freedom and equality as well as how the world will conceive the future between the brightness of utopia and the apocalyptic death of humanity. The equality that people demand is represented by red and silver sculptures being synchronised as a figure, the freedom is represented by objectified with the performance. The investigation of fairness and privilege of people were represented by Kobayashi’s creation of human existentialism as NGBS since 2012.
Materials :
Paints, Canvas, Fabric (Silk, Fur), Masking tape
The Factory of Universe :
is never-completing installation by integrating with multimedia works in cooperation with New Gender Bending Strawberry since 2014. It is a place for developing his idea of creating a unidentified being to unify non-racial community and sexual fairness to spend time on the same space to feel the love equally from a silver skin, hairy red head.
