Using the techniques of collecting and cataloguing, presentation and display, she transformed these everyday pieces of ephemera into art works that offer a means of exploring the inherent contradictions in our collective cultural life, as well as the individual and collective unconscious and subconscious. As an artist, she was interested in the areas of our cultural collective experience that are concerned with devalued or irrational experiences: the subconscious, the supernatural, the surreal, the mystical and the paranormal. She engaged with such experiences and phenomena which defy logical or rational explanation through the rational scientific techniques of taxonomy, collection, organization, description and comparison.

It was during a slide lecture on African art, that Hiller decided to become an artist. She felt art was "above all, irrational, mysterious, numinous … decided would become not an anthropologist but an artist: would relinquish factuality for fantasy". This decision to begin an art practice was an effort, as the artist later recalled, to "find a way to be inside all my activities." 886:– who Hiller had got to know in the 1960s – the show reflected Hiller's longstanding interest in artworks designed to induce reverie and explore altered states of consciousness.

These components are installed on the wall in a stepped pattern that descends from left to right. 483:(1972–76) - An installation consisting of 14 panels featuring more than 300 "rough sea" postcards and charts analysing the cards' linguistic and visual features, along with an accompanying artist's book.
