Motives
Motives represent visual forms of thematic content. He has painted most of the motifs
according to the models of traditional figurative iconography, starting from the landscape,
interior, portrait, self-portrait, act, quiet nature, animalism, architecture, caricature, etc. Adem
Kastrati's works are dominated by family motives, which he incorporates with a rare
sensitivity in the presentation of the village, the land, animals and especially the mother's care
for children. Through indigenous motifs related to the village and the birthplace he revealed
moments filled with existential issues. In particular he treats the "peasant", this being
according to him "direct", which gives meaning to life and which for the painter was always
the same: as when he moves, as when he works, as when he sings lullabies for her child in the
cradle. The women in his motifs have characteristic features with big eyes and full of story and
dreams inside them, which for the painter were mirrors of the soul. Meanwhile, men look
heavy, because, according to the painter, this is their tradition. They are heavy both when
walking, and when they sit cross-legged, and when they work, and when they dance at
weddings, which for the painter were their physical beauty.
