Born in Saligao, Goa in 1924, Souza was expelled for participating in the Quit India Movement while studying at the Sir J.J. School of Art in Mumbai. He founded Progressive Artist's Movement along with S.H. Raza and K.H. Ara, among others, in 1947. Soon after independence, he left for Britain, and then for New York, where he received the Guggenheim International Award. His works are in the collections of the Tate Gallery, London and the National Gallery of Modern Art, New Delhi. His works were exhibited at the Gallery Creuze, Paris in 1954, at Arts 38, in London, in 1975 and 1976, and at the Bose Pacia Modern, in New York, in 1998.
