Title: "Broken Thread"
Description:
It looks as if something delicate suddenly gave way. A fine connection that once carried something has begun to tremble – stretched, stressed, perhaps held for too long. The lines run across the surface like traces of a moment that cannot be undone.
Red breaks in like a feeling that can no longer be hidden. It is not only pain, but also expression – a flare of what happens inside when something tears or changes. The black resists, tries to organize, to connect, yet nothing remains completely calm.
And yet there remains this thread. Vulnerable, perhaps damaged, but still present. It tells of what was and of what, in spite of everything, persists.

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 a minimalist, abstract style and are carefully crafted from high-quality materials to ensure vibrant colors and longevity. In his art he frequently explores themes such as identity, memory, and the exploration of human emotions, often shifting the boundaries between the visible and the invisible.
Prein’s approach to art is multidimensional, blending 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 complexity of the modern world and the deeper aspects of human experience.
For a painting measuring 200 x 100 cm, a frame stretcher of 190 x 90 cm and a thickness of 2-4 cm are required.
You can either stretch the canvas yourself or have it stretched by an art professional or gallery.
This is a handmade original, signed by the artist on the back and dated to the year.
High-quality and lightfast acrylic paints have been used on multiple layers of white-primed gallery canvas.
To protect the work, a varnish was also applied.
This work is hand-made and therefore unique!

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