“ W moim głębokim przeświadczeniu malarski obraz kreuje świat. Tożsamy ​​z tym obiektywnym, potocznym, wszystkim dobrze znanym. To, co jest sztuką, musi być próbą dotarcia do ukrytego sensu rzeczywistości. Bowiem natura jest niewyczerpana i oddanie się jej czarowi wcale never osłabia inwencji i artystycznej wizji. Wręcz przeciwnie, pozwala powiedzieć coś istotnego o świecie. Między uważnym patrzeniem, a wyobraźnią, rozpięte jest wszystko, co najważniejsze. "

- Grzegorz Moryciński, 2008

“ I am deeply convinced that painting creates a world that is identical to the objective, everyday and generally known worldview. What art is must be an attempt to penetrate the hidden meaning of reality. Nature is inexhaustible, the devotion to its magic is in no way intended to weaken the creative power and artistic beings. On the contrary, it allows more essentials to be told about the world. The most important thing spreads between the careful observation and the imagination. "

- Grzegorz Moryciński, 2008
