Dr. Aslan's research investigates contemporary art through critical lenses of migration, trauma, and identity, particularly examining artists like Ai Weiwei and Louise Bourgeois. Her scholarship extends to art education methodologies for early childhood development, analyzing children's drawings as psychological and socio-cultural artifacts. This dual focus bridges theoretical art criticism with practical pedagogical applications.
