Work by Hughes are included in some of public collections including the Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki, Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, and the National Gallery of Australia. A 2015 work, Transit Cloud, created in collaboration with Gregor Kregar and Davor Popadich (artist) was installed in the alleyway between McCrae Way and Totara Avenue, New Lynn as part of the New Lynn transformation project. The sculpture is part of the Auckland City Art Collection. It attracted public controversy after critics said it looked like a giant penis. In 2023 she was commissioned to create art works called Colour Quartet to be sold to raise funds for the restoration of Kāhui St David's a music centre in Khyber Pass Rd, Auckland.
