Her first solo exhibition was held in 2017 at the Texas Regional Art Gallery in Texas, Queensland. Moggs was the winner of the 2018 NAIDOC Week national poster contest. Her poster, entitled "tarmunggie – woman", expressed appreciation of inspiring indigenous women who have been trailblazers and leaders, in keeping with that year's NAIDOC Week theme "Because of her we can!" It had three overlaying layers that represented "dreamtime, culture and knowledge". The artwork was selected as the winner of the contest from among 200 entries, one of the largest number of entries for a NAIDOC poster contest. As part of the celebrations for NAIDOC Week, her artwork was placed on display in the Parliament House in Canberra. Moggs also received a cash prize. The same year, Moogs created a Google doodle honoring Mum Shirl, which was displayed on the Google website on 8 July 2018. The doodle included a black and white image of Mum Shirl layered over traditional designs, along with the words "Because of her we can!" Personal life
