Unexpected Unpredictability - A solo exhibition by Kedimari
NOTAGALLERY
08 MARCH – 30 MARCH 2024
Notagallery is pleased to present “Unexpected Unpredictability”, Kedimari’s first solo exhibition at Notagallery, following her participation in the 2023 group exhibition, "Ambivalent."
In Kedimari’s enigmatic and vibrant paintings, reality meets the extraordinary through vivid colors and unique forms. Her works, deeply influenced by her Transylvanian roots and Expressionism, picture the emotional landscapes and complexities of human experience. With a rich color palette of deep indigos, fiery reds, and bold yellows, she explores themes of inner turmoil, cultural diversity, and the primal aspects of human nature: fear, desire, and conflict.
Kedimari's "Unexpected Unpredictability" showcases the abundant unpredictability inherent in everyday life and interactions, illuminating the astonishment found in each color, situation, and gesture. In an era marked by diminishing connections and socialization, Kedimari captures the essence of seemingly mundane everyday activities.
Each artwork carries a snapshot of a moment, a singular act in the drama of human existence where individuals, despite their distinct personas, resonate in shared emotions.
Through Kedimari's eyes the viewers are encouraged to question and reinterpret the scenes of their everyday lives. The exhibition encourages us all to find the extraordinary in the ordinary, to see the world anew, and to embrace the unpredictable flow of human experience.

Kedimari
Painter, Multidisciplinary Artist
Kedimari (Melisa Maria Tatar) is a contemporary Romanian artist deeply influenced by the communal human narrative. Beginning her artistic endeavors at Ploesti Scoala Popular De Artã, she ventured into violin and painting, and later honed her oil painting and technical drawing skills at Istanbul Art Studio. After attaining her BFA in Graphic Design, Kedimari cultivated a unique artistic style that marries contemporary techniques with traditional expressionism. Her exhibitions at Notagallery in Berlin in 2023 and at Galerie Benjamin Eck in 2024 added another layer to her evolving artistic journey. Bridging the epochs of past and present, individual and community, her work is a vibrant mosaic of colors and forms.
Dramatic and expressionistic artistry of Kedimari reflects the overlapping emotions that connect individuals to a community.
Embodying the essence of a cabaret stage, the grandeur of a grand ball, or the intimacy of a local theatre, Kedimari’s works coalesce to portray the compelling narrative of community and the shared human experience.
Through her careful observation, Kedimari paints a narrative of singular personalities united by common threads, revealing the shared emotions that underpin our diverse lives. Each piece is a snapshot of a moment, a singular act in the drama of existence where individuals, despite their distinct personas, and resonate in shared sentiments.
Utilizing a rich and flowing color palette, Kedimari creates harmonious scenes that speak volumes about our collective past, rendered anew in contemporary colors and shapes.
