Title: "Abstract Wound"
Description:
This painting tells no specific story—and yet it feels like a memory that cannot be fully grasped. Gray, almost fleeting shapes seem like shadows of thoughts or bodies that appear in the background and then disappear again. Overlaid are black and red splatters that break in like suddenly erupted emotions—raw, uncontrolled, and honest.
"Abstract Wound" stands for what people often carry inside: invisible injuries, quiet conflicts, moments that leave traces even when no one sees them. The red accents evoke pain and intensity, while the black reflects the chaos and heaviness that can arise internally. The light gray in between feels like a breath—a attempt to find order or to move on.
The image operates like an inner dialogue: between vulnerability and strength, between control and eruption. It invites not only to look, but to feel—and perhaps to recognize one’s own "abstract wound" within it.

Christoph Prein is an Austrian artist known for his abstract and contemporary works, mainly created with acrylic paints. Originally from St. Margarethen near Knittelfeld, Prein’s pieces are often characterized by a minimalist, abstract style and are carefully crafted from high-quality materials to ensure vibrant colors and longevity. In his art he frequently engages themes such as identity, memory, and the exploration of human emotions, often blurring the line between the visible and the invisible.
Prein’s approach to art is multi-dimensional, combining painting with elements of sculpture and installation. This unique style has earned him recognition both in Austria and internationally, with exhibitions across 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 100 cm you need a stretcher of size 150 x 90 cm and a thickness of 2-4 cm.
You can then either simply stretch the canvas yourself or have it stretched by an artisan or gallery owner.
This is a handmade original, which the artist has signed on the back and dated.
We used high-quality, lightfast acrylic paints on a multi-coated white primed gallery canvas.
To protect the work, a varnish was also applied.
This work is handmade and therefore a one-of-a-kind!

When a person goes into his innermost depths, into a sphere that rarely comes to light, into a space that mysteriously and hidden is waiting to be discovered, tickled awake, also tormentingly propped up, then art is born.
