Works

The central theme of her work are adolescent people and their feelings. Otto leaves its protagonists, mostly young girls, make puzzling actions. Otto takes a neutral observer position and confronts the viewer with the process of growing up. By soft merging into one another light and shadow zones interrupted by harsh color accents, it produces a strong vitality. This creates body landscapes that their characters a strong authenticity.[2]
