Stefan Szczesny quotes

As a means of expression, painting must deliver universally valid statements, make allegorical reflections on life, and create new mythologies. (Stefan Szczesny)
A painting grows like a plant. Use all colours, all shapes. Everything that attracts and excites me is a part of me. Painting is about proportions, relationships which breathe life. "Painting is a harmony which runs parallel to nature." View quote

Light, colour, love - let me come under your spell. Life can be represented only by a lively kind of painting. There is clarity in passion. View quote

Paintings are complex puzzles in the twilight world between abstraction and figuration. I use the medium in a simple, unsophisticated way to express what I don't see expressed anywhere else. View quote
