cova da moura story

by C.Matthias Kügler. Posted in Architecture, Comic

My first comic (so don`t be too critcal),  drawn  in order of a projekt in “Cova da Moura” an suburb area near lisbon, similar to a ghetto. The people who live there, most of them from Cape Verde and the rest of Africa, have  to deal with an area in a very bad condition. Cova da Moura also not enjoys the best reputation in Lisbon and in the media.
For my analyses the most significant thing is, that people spend most of the time on the streets, the most important public space in this case. And thats whats the comic is all about.
 

Drawn with pigmentliner –  November 2009
