ANNOUNCING TWO NEW TESSA PERUTZ ORIGINALS In anticipation of the start of Summer
ART FOR CHANGE is thrilled to announce two new original watercolors on paper from Tessa Perutz. Available now to purchase!
Comprising thickly contoured compositions that straddle the line between figuration and abstraction, NY Watercolor Series is a body of work inspired by Fort Greene Park in Brooklyn. Swatches of vibrant, technicolor hues demarcate tree branches and stumps from the surrounding environment—defined by human-made paths and planters at times, and the irregular curvatures of shrubbery at others.
As part of ART FOR CHANGE’s ongoing commitment to environmental stewardship and charitable giving, we will plant 10 trees for each artwork sold. Of ART FOR CHANGE’s initiative to support One Tree Planted, Perutz notes, “As these works were made by observing the patterns and shifts within the natural landscapes of Brooklyn’s Fort Greene Park, it makes perfect sense for proceeds from their sales to go towards planting trees in urban environments. I am proud to contribute to such a focused and positive organization, which is improving the lives of countless people through greenifying their immediate surroundings.”

Tessa Perutz’s artworks function as psychological landscapes, touring the fields and valleys of the earth as well as the inner mind. The artist considers her creations—pinpointed with anecdotes, hasty jottings, and existential ponderings—to be a testimony to spontaneous exploration. Equally shaped by intuition and conceptualization, her paintings and installations reference the depths of natural worlds and collective memory. Based in New York and Paris, Perutz has exhibited works internationally.

All of Tessa Perutz’s paintings commence en plein air. With a keen eye for color and place, she transcribes nature and humans within nature, through sensitive motifs captured across an ever-expanding selection of mediums. Exploring mortality, regeneration, spirituality, death and rebirth, Perutz translates the cycles of human experience and our inter-connectivity through hypnotic simplicity and control.
