Christophe - Beneath the Surface - XXL

Title: “Under the Surface”
Description:
Like a glimpse into the hidden depths of the ocean, the painting unfolds in a spectrum of blue hues, from soft light to dark, unfathomable depths. The structures and textures evoke the shimmering reflections of water refracting at the surface, while mysterious shadows hide in the darkest areas—like sunken worlds waiting to be discovered.
The composition creates a sense of movement, as if drifting through a quiet, weightless space. “Under the Surface” invites the viewer to look beyond the obvious, to plunge into the depths and be enveloped by boundless silence and the immensity of the water.
The canvas is delivered rolled.
Christoph Prein is an Austrian artist known for his abstract and contemporary works, created mainly with acrylic paints.
Originally from St. Margarethen near Knittelfeld, Prein’s pieces are often characterized by their minimalist and abstract style and are carefully crafted from high-quality materials to ensure vivid colors and durability. In his art, he frequently integrates 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 distinctive style has earned him recognition both in Austria and internationally, with exhibitions in Europe, North America, and Asia. His works often invite the viewer to reflect on the complexities of the modern world and the deeper aspects of the human experience.
For a painting measuring 160 x 130 cm, you need a frame sized 150 x 120 cm and a thickness of 2–4 cm.
You can then either simply mount the canvas yourself, or have it mounted by an artisan or gallery.
This is an original handmade piece, signed by the artist on the back and dated for the year.
