Her art has been displayed across New York City’s galleries, the Chelsea Museum and the United Nations. Ohayon’s works are a visual allegory, hopeful in nature, with mystical and spiritual allusions. They represent a melding of the Israeli and Moroccan influences from which she descends, while paying homage to New York, the city she has called home for the past 20 years.

Her primary role at The Hive comprised the design and crafting of costumes and props for all shows and theater productions. Libi and her Hive friends eventually produced a series of fashion shows entitled "Rags Etc.", which showcased her costumes and provided a free stage for other up-and-coming costume designers to present their creations accompanied by an extravaganza of original theater, live music, dance and circus acts.
