She works with sculpture, photography, drawing, and painting, creating material and visual juxtapositions that are attentive to the absurd, and question the certainty of what is considered fact. The deliberately awkward artworks dwell on failure and futility, are spatially evocative, and imbue an anti-heroism that plays out ironically, in her works. Mulji's participation in recent exhibitions includes In the Open or in Stealth, MACBA, Barcelona 2018, Witness, Karachi Biennale 2017, "A country of Last Things" (solo), Koel Gallery, Karachi, 2016, "The Great Game", Irani Pavillion, Venice Biennale, 2015, among others. Mulji was a recipient of the Nigaah Art Award for print making in 2017 and the Abraaj Group Art Prize 2013.
