The Boston Globe, July 2018:
Mark Feeney writes: “Speaking of blue, Terri Bright’s enticingly inscrutable “Untitled 2016” offers two shades. Or there’s Molly Block’s marvelously cropped “Diving Lady Motel.” Ostensibly about the funky neon sign for said hostelry, it’s really about kinds of blue: the sign’s background (navy), the diver’s bathing suit (almost turquoise), and the sky.”

Houston Press, July 2016:
Susie Tommaney says: “Molly Block, one of three artists from the Houston area, shows two inkjet prints from her “Roadside Relics: Vintage Neon Signs” series, harkening back to a kinder, gentler time when the race for space influenced design.”
