African Queen

Jaret Loggenberg

Born in 1994 and raised on a farm outside Parys, South Africa, Jaret Loggenberg discovered her passion for art and culture at the young age of ten. In 2010, she sold her first painting, which enabled her to participate in an art tour across Europe—an experience that greatly influenced her artistic journey. After matriculating, Jaret Loggenberg followed her father’s advice and pursued a BCom degree, as he was concerned that a career in art would not provide a sustainable income.

Despite this practical path, Jaret Loggenberg remained deeply inspired by the human body and anatomy. Countless hours of research in the library led her to discover her love for the human form, particularly the female figure. As a dedicated figure artist, she focuses on capturing the essence of the female form—its grace, strength, and complexity.

Jaret Loggenberg developed a distinctive stroke technique over years of painting, which has become a hallmark of her work. She prefers oil as her medium of
choice, appreciating its ability to convey clear messages and evoke strong emotions while remaining open to individual interpretation. Her art is characterized by bold, expressive strokes and natural, earthy colors that reflect the warmth, emotion, and inner beauty of women.

For Jaret Loggenberg, art is not about being the best but about continuous growth. She actively pursues improvement by attending various art workshops and constantly refining her craft. “It’s not about being the best – it’s about being better than you were yesterday,” she says.

Through her work, Jaret Loggenberg explores the universal experiences of women, regardless of their background or origins. She believes that women
around the world face similar discrimination and stereotypes, and through her art—an unspoken, universal language—she seeks to inspire resilience and empowerment. “It doesn’t matter what has happened to us in the past, we should rise and take back life. We are not victims, but victors.”

Jaret Loggenberg is a registered South African artist represented by The Travelling Art Gallery and Artsy. She has exhibited extensively in South Africa and
across Europe. Her work has been featured in numerous exhibitions organized by The Travelling Art Gallery, including: Berlin, Germany (2020), Munich, Germany (2020), Cape Town, South Africa (2020), Hamburg, Germany (2021, 2022), Weimar, Germany (2022), Palma de Mallorca, Spain (2022), ARTSY Online Exhibition (2023), Kassel, Germany (2023), Kitzbühel, Austria (2024) and Berlin, Germany (2025)

In 2023, Jaret Loggenberg realized a lifelong dream by opening The Artist Gallery in Cape Town, South Africa, in collaboration with fellow artists and her agent. She
now exclusively showcases her work at The Artist Gallery, continuing to share her powerful visual narratives and connecting with audiences locally and globally.
