About me

London-based Latvian artist Margarita Frančeska Loze likes to look closely and follow curiosity. A plant vein can become a landscape and a root system can turn into an intricate embroidered world. She explores patterns, cycles and relationships in the living systems around us, translating them into artworks. Her practice moves between textile, painting, sculpture, moving image and sound.

Born in Riga, Loze first studied Textile Design at the Riga School of Design and Art before moving to London, where she graduated with a BA in Fine Art: Painting from Wimbledon College of Arts, UAL and an MFA in Fine Art from Kingston School of Art. She has exhibited internationally and participated in residencies across Europe and Taiwan. Recent group exhibitions have taken place at Roman Road, Hypha HQ and Blanco Gallery in London and 1/2 Room Gallery in Changhua, Taiwan. Two years ago, she had her first solo exhibition in Riga at LOOK! Gallery. In 2026, she had a solo show Microcosm at Kalnciema Kvartāls Gallery.
