Title: "Lost Contours"
Description
These are the moments when nothing is sharply bounded anymore, and yet everything feels real. Cool blue tones flow into one another, as if memories were losing their firm shapes and reordering themselves. Between the layers, a quiet movement arises—a pause that makes room for feeling.
When looking at it, there are no clear shapes, but traces of closeness, of change, of something deeply human. The image acts like a mirror of inner states: insecure, open, vulnerable and at the same time calm. In the blurred transitions there is no emptiness, but a gentle truth—that not everything needs to be clear in order to carry meaning.

The cracks in the picture are intentional.
They are not signs of damage, but part of the artistic expression. The cracks belong to the surface the way scars belong to the skin: they tell of tension, movement, and the process itself. It is precisely through these cracks that the work gains depth and authenticity – nothing is smoothed, nothing hidden.
The canvas is delivered rolled.
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.
