In 2022, Katrin Hotz received an invitation to work at the Atelier de Gravure in Moutier in Biel. The artist used the printing facilities there to create the drawing Husch-husch, der schönste Vokal entleert sich. M.E. par M.O. (The Loveliest Vowel Empties. M.E. by M.O.) by Meret Oppenheim into monotypes. To do this, she cut copper plates into seven organic shapes, which she arranged and printed directly on the printing press in several passes. This resulted in both abstract and organic forms with overlapping colour surfaces – both lucid and powerful at the same time.
