With vibrant vivacity Joanna Latka traces the life of Lisbon. Distinctive and typical architecture, public places with their cafés, traffic, and social cooperation. Everything characteristic of this city is being portrayed by Joanna Latka in a charming and loving way. Joanna Latka also portrays herself - you can find her in a red dress in different episodes and situations, creating the impression of a diary or a cartoon-story.

Crooked perspectives, streets that flow into the picture, street-lights which seem to have a life of their own create a strange dynamic and atmosphere of the city. It seems as if her drawings would instantly start to live. Her lively stroke is capable of making you feel the wind blowing through the alleyways and making you hear the raindrops drumming against umbrellas or even the people chatting in the patios. Joanna Latka’s pictures are an invitation to Lisbon.
