Artwork of Molokoiedova includes installations, sculptures, drawings, and many more. Among her drawings are works from the series "Washed with Pervoll". For this series, the artist created drawings with markers on office paper and then washed them with detergent. 

Her work, "Dad — Bear" (2021), was created after the artist had "stolen" a photo of her little dad from her grandmother's album. It tells a story about the relationship between parents and children — about what the figure of the father represents, and what or who stands behind it. It is an encounter and an introduction to the child who is her father.
