Title: "Falling Light"

Description:
It seems as if the light itself is getting tired and slowly sinks downward. Not abruptly, but in soft, long trails that lay over everything — as if the day decided to quietly withdraw. The warm yellows and oranges carry something familiar within them, almost like the last sunbeams that fall through a window and for a moment envelope everything in calm.

In between, small tensions flash up, red fragments that seem like memories — lively, but already fading. Nothing remains sharply defined, nothing is clearly outlined. Everything is in transition, in letting go.

"Falling Light" feels like that brief moment between arrival and farewell. When you pause, without knowing exactly why, and sense that something is becoming quieter. Not sad, not heavy — rather gentle. Almost as if the moment itself is asking to stay a little longer.

The canvas is delivered rolled up.

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 a minimalist, abstract style and are carefully crafted from high-quality materials to ensure vivid colors and longevity. In his art, he frequently incorporates themes of 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 in Austria and internationally, with exhibitions across Europe, North America, and Asia. His works invite viewers to ponder the complexities of the modern world and the deeper aspects of human experience.

For a painting measuring 200 x 120 cm, you need a stretcher frame sized 190 x 110 cm with a thickness of 2-4 cm.

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

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

High-quality and colorfast acrylic paints have been used on multiple coats of white primed gallery canvas.

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 realm that rarely sees the light, into a space that is mysterious and hidden, waiting to be discovered, teased awake, even tormented into standing upright, then art is born.
