Wilding has exhibited extensively worldwide since the late 1960s. A 2014 retrospective of Wilding's work, "Fearful Symmetries," traveled to five venues across the United States. Wilding's work was also included in the seminal survey "WACK! Art and the Feminist Revolution," organized by Cornelia Butler, which traveled from the Museum of Contemporary Art (Los Angeles) to the National Museum of Women (Washington, D.C.), PS1 Contemporary Art Center (Long Island), and the Vancouver Art Gallery.

2023 marks the fiftieth anniversary of "Womanhouse," an influential Los Angeles exhibition, installation, and performance space organized through the "CalArts Feminist Art Program." At "Womanhouse," Wilding's "Womb Room" fiber installation and performance "Waiting" are some of the best-known and highly influential works of the 1970s Feminist Art Movement. Wilding's book "By Our Own Hands" catalogs this important era of experimentation and collaboration that defined west-coast Feminist art during the early 1970s.
