Description from the seller

A unique piece by the artist Christoph Prein - UNIQUE & ORIGINAL PAINTING - 100% HAND-PAINTED - Image description and real-time certificate attached!

-

Title: "Distant Nearness"

Description:
Some places or memories may feel distant yet seem surprisingly close at the same time. This painting captures that very feeling. The layered blue tones create a space of quiet where thoughts may wander and memories slowly rise to the surface.

With its soft transitions and open structures, the image invites you to pause and discover your own story within it. It does not tell of a specific place, but of a state — of longing, connection, and the quiet certainty that what moves us most is never entirely lost. Sometimes the greatest closeness is not in the tangible, but in what we carry inside us.

-

The cracks in the painting are intentional. They are not a sign of damage, but part of the artistic expression. The breaks belong to the surface as scars belong to the skin: they tell of tension, movement, and the process itself. It is precisely through these cracks that the work gains depth and authenticity — nothing is smoothed over, nothing hidden.

The canvas will be delivered rolled.

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 durability. In his art, he frequently explores themes of identity, memory, and human emotions, often shifting 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 in Austria and internationally, with exhibitions across Europe, North America, and Asia. His works invite viewers to reflect on the complexities of the modern world and the deeper aspects of human experience.

For a painting measuring 160 x 100 cm, you need a canvas frame of 150 x 90 cm with a thickness of 2–4 cm.

You can either 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.

High-quality, lightfast acrylic paints were applied to repeatedly white-grounded gallery canvas.

A varnish was also applied to protect the work.

This work is handmade and therefore unique!

When a person goes into his innermost depths, into a sphere that rarely comes to light, into a space that is mysterious and hidden, waiting to be discovered, tickled awake, and even tormentingly sustained, 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.
