Artist Jaret Loggenberg will showcase her first solo exhibition in South Africa, titled Gratitude, at Avontuur Estate in Somerset West, from Thursday March 30, to Sunday April 2.
The show, which explores the feminine form through a collection of oil paintings, highlights the vulnerability and strength intrinsic to women and serves as a reminder for self-love and respect.
Drawing inspiration from photographs, Ms Loggenberg uses warm natural colours and bold brushstrokes to capture the powerful nature of women.
The exhibition includes female portraits as the main focus, as well as nude studies that showcase the ephemeral quality of women’s lives through emotive facial expressions and figures.
The exhibition is a celebration of recent events in Ms Loggenberg’s personal and professional life, including her recent marriage and participation in mostly sold out exhibitions in Germany, Austria and Spain last year.
“This collection is very close to my heart and my main aim is to inspire the viewer and sow seeds of hope, love, and kindness,” says Ms Loggenberg.
“God made us all unique with different talents and gifts, and I hope my work will remind viewers that they are special and that they can make a personal connection with an artwork that speaks to them.”
This exhibition serves as a testament to her resolution to live life fully and is a celebration of her accomplishments and blessings.
The public is invited to attend the opening of Gratitude on Thursday March 30, at 11am.
