Being one of a few contemporary artists working in ceramics, Asmar Alizada portrays stories, fairy tales, and individuals experiencing fear, anxiety, or desire.

Her works made appearances at national and regional museums, Asmar's porcelain works often take the form of a human head or body part, or a faceless volume with a lone nose or ear. They are finished in ethereal glazes, in shades of pastel pink, purple, and blue. Asmar begins her works by collecting images and objects and exploring an archive of materials that belonged to her artist grandmother. She uses these found materials, as well as personal experiences, to develop drawings that become the basis of sculptures.
