Leyla Aliyeva is known as a person of outstanding creativity. While she is Vice-president of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation and Founder of the IDEA Public Union, and thus involved with intensive charity and enlightenment activities, Leyla-khanum finds the time for being an artist as well – particularly, she succeeds in fine arts and the poetry.

One of the newest works by Leyla Aliyeva (collage, mixed technique on paper, 118x118 cm), has been created by her own initiative for the Baku Marionette Theatre. This work is significant for its magic combination of a doll-enamel style of visualization with a deep philosophical load of the composition. The work was donated by the author to the theater on June 7, 2018.
