What remains

Description:
This image speaks softly. It does not impose itself; it demands nothing. It exists like a state after something that has passed. The layers of gray and white seem as if they have been laid over each other to preserve something — not clear, not tangible, but perceptible.

The traces evoke memories that are no longer sharp. Thoughts that change over time without completely disappearing. Nothing is clearly defined; everything seems to be in motion, and yet there is a sense of calm within it. As if the essential has settled after all the superfluous has gone.

What remains is not a picture of the answer, but acceptance. It speaks of letting go, moving forward, and of what stays when you no longer hold on. Not loud, not definitive – but honest.

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.


For a painting with the dimensions 160 x 100 cm you need a stretcher frame of the size of
150 x 90 cm and a thickness of 2-4 cm.

You can either stretch the canvas yourself or have it stretched by an artisan or gallery professional.



This is a handcrafted original, signed and dated by the artist on the back.

High-quality, light-resistant acrylic paints were used on gallery canvas primed several times in white.

A varnish was also applied to protect the work.



This work is handmade and therefore unique!



Authenticity certificate included

When a person ventures into their innermost depths, into a sphere that rarely comes to light, into a space that is mysterious and hidden, waiting to be discovered, gently awakened, yet painfully exposed, then art is born.

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.
