A richly layered panel work by Michaela Meise, *Auge 2* combines wood, resin, enamel, and found glass to create a surface that feels both ancient and luminous. The interplay of industrial and organic materials generates a sense of depth and mystery, as translucent and opaque elements coexist in quiet tension. The work reflects Meise's ongoing interest in the residue of everyday objects and the poetic possibilities embedded in material history.
