A particular focus of Zucker's work is the use of short looping animations in the style of .gif files, such as cartoons of iconic figures in contemporary feminism including Rachel Maddow and Lena Dunham.[4] Zucker collaborates with Bronwyn Lundberg in the creative studio YoMeryl.[5] Zucker along with Lundberg were the first artists to present .gif images as art at the Brooklyn Museum. She is a member of the creative duo the Current Sea (a solo project called Fancy Nothing since 2017) which hosts Prism Pipe, a monthly showcase of experimental gif art.[6] Zucker is an author for the short-form comedy series Super Deluxe, authoring Panic Attacks, Shows That Weren't, and Mutations, a morphing celebrity lexicon.
