Title: "Open Wound"
Description
Nothing here is finished. Something has happened, and it still lingers. The red is not lying still; it has been flung out, raw, unprotected— as if the painting itself hadn't had a moment to compose itself. The trace runs through the white like a pain that cannot be hidden.
The black encircles, splashes, and resists. It recalls defense, rigidity, and the attempt to find a foothold while everything is still in motion. White is not neutral—it becomes the silence after the cry, the space in which vulnerability is laid bare.
"Open Wound" does not speak of healing, but of being in the moment of the injury. Of the courage not to close oneself off. Of humanity when everything lies bare.

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.

Seller's Story
My name is Christoph Prein, a freelance artist from St. Margarethen near Knittelfeld. I have been painting for many years, especially acrylic painting. My abstract acrylic paintings and my classic works of art are made from high-quality materials. I only work with the finest artist acrylic and other selected products. All acrylic paintings are signed by me, dated to the year and sealed with a final varnish. I attach great importance to originality and confirm that each painting is handmade and therefore unique.
