Al Souza
For the last two decades Al Souza, with great critical acclaim and success, has worked with ordinary materials and common subject matters. Culling materials from a world of excess, Souza creates dynamic compositions the eye compulsively traverses. The newest works are masterfully composed of thousands of layered jigsaw puzzle pieces in loose and semi-completed chunks and meticulously cut and layered paper collages.
