THE FREEDOM PROJECT

With bold new designs and a rich palette of effervescent colors, Tumi celebrates the art of freedom. To highlight the theme of its new Spring-Summer collection "Freedom", the premium luggage and accessories brand is teaming up with legendary street artist John Andrew Perello, also known as JonOne.

On the 27th February, together they hosted an exclusive art event in the Tumi Champs-Elysées flagship where brand & art lovers, press and influencers could meet the artist and see him personalising six of the brand iconic 19 Degree cases LIVE. This fall, the unique pieces will be sold in a charity auction supporting Waves for Water, bringing clean water to all people in need.

John Perello

John Perello, aka JonOne, was born in Harlem, he began doing street art at the age of seventeen. He was quickly noticed for his dense and luminous atypical work inspired by his Dominican origins. He is now recognised as a precursor in his discipline. Defending street art as a form of art in itself, he contributes to preserving it while making it travel and being known.
As such, JonOne is considered today as an
Ambassador of contemporary art.

To me, TUMI is synonymous with travel, freedom and discovery of the world. Nowadays, environmental issues are at the heart of freedom and as such, freedom is being jeopardised. This is sad. I wish each human being could be as free mentally and physically as possible. I am very proud to support W4W projects through TUMI, so that water can feed our lives, feed our freedom and can continue to make life and its colours vibrate.
