Born in Nairobi, Kenya, to parents originally from Goa, India, deSouza moved to London, England when he was seven, and was educated in both the UK and the United States.〔Sujeet Rajan, “Creating models…”, ''The Indian Express'', November 16, 2001.〕 A traveler and member of an increasingly cross-national, global culture since birth, deSouza engages with issues of migration, relocation, and international travel in much of his work.〔Britany Salsbury, “Critic’s Picks: Allan deSouza,” ''Artforum'', August 2011.〕〔Karin Miller-Lewis, "Stripping Illusions," ''Art India'', August 2008.〕 The inheritor of the ideas and issues of colonialism and postcolonialism, his photoworks, texts, and installations re-examine historically-fraught meanings of geography, culture, and personal and communal identity. Much of his work takes up themes and visual vocabulary of migration and diaspora; his series of photographic work, ''The World Series'', for example, was created as a response to Jacob Lawrence’s ''The Migration Series''.〔(Julia Gosemeyer, “The World Series,” ''Art Practical'', February 2012. )〕〔(Holland Cotter, "Allan deSouza," ''The New York Times'', February 29, 2008 ).〕
DeSouza’s interest in movement, travel and dislocation has provoked an engagement with memory and the passage of time in his work.〔Lavina Melwani, "Blurred Tenses", ''India Today'', December 17, 2001.〕 For the photographic series ''The Lost Pictures'', DeSouza placed a number of slides of old family photos around his house, deliberately allowing them to become scratched, faded, and covered in dust.〔“Allan DeSouza”, ''The Village Voice'', July 2005.〕〔(Ken Johnson, “Allan DeSouza: ‘The Lost Pictures’”, ''The New York Times'', July 8, 2005. )〕 Desouza’s work, in the words of one critic, “explores...both memory and photography as means of recording and preserving the past from aging, loss, displacement, and historical change.”〔“Allan deSouza: The Lost Pictures,” ''Modern Painters'', September 2005.〕 Although often based in historical figures or events, his work also incorporates "fiction, erasure, re-inscription, and (mis)translation".〔
DeSouza's work has been featured at museums and galleries worldwide, including at The Phillips Collection, in Washington, DC, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, in San Francisco, International Center of Photography (ICP), in New York, Centre Georges Pompidou, in Paris, the Museum for African Art, in New York, Moderna Museet, in Stockholm, Sweden and Talwar Gallery, which represents the artist, in New York and New Delhi.
