Breath of Cold
Description
This painting feels like a moment when you step into a quiet, wintery landscape. The air is clear and sharp, settling on the skin and making every breath perceptible. In the delicate shades of gray and white layers, there is something contemplative — like memories that slowly surface and fade away again. The cold does not seem hostile but honest and immediate. It creates distance from the world, but also space for your own thoughts.
It is the moment when you stop, listen to the silence — and for a brief moment, are completely with yourself.

Christoph Prein is an Austrian artist known for his abstract and contemporary works, created primarily with acrylic paints. Originally from St. Margarethen near Knittelfeld, Prein's pieces are often characterized by their minimalist, abstract style and are carefully crafted from high-quality materials to ensure vibrant colors and longevity. His art frequently explores themes such as identity, memory, and the exploration of human emotions, often pushing the boundaries between the visible and the invisible.
Prein's approach to art is multidimensional, combining painting with elements of sculpture and installation. This unique style has earned him recognition both in Austria and internationally, with exhibitions throughout Europe, North America, and Asia. His works often invite the viewer to reflect on the complexity of the modern world and the deeper aspects of the human experience.
