She has held exhibitions of her work since 2000, and participated in exhibitions with themes related to cats and spirituality. Her last exhibition was held in Neko Cafe, in Vienna, and won the hearts of the Viennese people.

Her artworks have travelled to France, China, Spain, New Zealand, U.S.A., Canada, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Argentina, Colombia, Italy and Ireland.

The art of Mónica Padilla intends to honor the spirit of cats to awaken awareness of them as sacred and magical beings.
