Reviews
- Jim Welke, "A Myriad of One :: Simone DeSousa", artifizz, May 17, 2013. "The surfaces of most of Ms. DeSousa's works exhibit an undulating, sensuous texture, which adds to the warmth. None suggest a cold, mechanical topography. You want to touch them, but know you can not. They beckon like temptresses. The three-dimensionality adds to that sensation. The laminated, layered edges suggest growth rings in timber — time passes, layers accumulate during growth, growth implies continuity — organic continuity."
