Artistic and Process Statement: Claudia Alick’s “HER” began as a exercise to make a woman walk with apowerfist in the air. Claudia made a collage using different elements and fed it through a generator to produce hundreds of images. The artistic impulse was one to add collaged images that would inspire the machine to produce what she wanted. When she shared the animation online she added the Megan the Stallion song Her and names the piece after that.
Calling Up Justice practice members speak on panels, provides lectures and workshops and support university students. Below is a selection of our gigs for 2022 that reflect our values and practice. This is not an exhaustive list but reflects some of the main thrusts of our practice.
Artistic and Process Statement: Claudia Alick’s “Funky Girl” was inspired by a tiktok artist named Fungkiigrrl’s video where she edited herself dancing with cool visuals.
Artistic and Process Statement: Claudia Alick’s “Sis You a Bad Bitch” began with a collage of a Black woman. I used the AI generators to generate versions that were screaming in joy, pain, or standing in their power. I edited an animation that cycled through these different emotions. I added the music Sis You A Bad Bitch 2.0 by Shariya Wise and named the piece after the song.
Calling Up Justice supports programs and projects of it’s practice members. To support Matthew Reynolds we speak in and sometimes facilitate his Liberated DEI Let’s Talk Clubhouse room.

The Dis/Rep project is a yearly series of virtual engagements focused on disability representation and accessibility that began in 2020. It utilizes a variety of formats, including book club-style discussions, a Discord server for asynchronous participation, web content, and remote engagement activities. The project is designed to be an anti-ableist, anti-racist, queer, and trans-positive space, centering the needs and voices of the disability community.
The Justice Producers Collaborative connects members through monthly cultivation calls, a Discord channel for communication, and a line justice garden that contains links to all of the Collaborative’s projects. These cultivation calls are open to all who self-identify as justice producers and prioritize the perspectives and practices of marginalized communities, including BIPOC, disabled, queer, and trans communities. During these calls, members introduce themselves, share their justice practices and future projects, and discuss how their marginalized identities influence their work. They also explore how they want others to connect with their work.
wearing a mask during a triple pandemic is a crucial step that individuals can take to protect themselves and others from the spread of infectious diseases. By making spaces accessible to immunocompromised individuals and taking this simple preventive measure, we can help to slow the spread of COVID-19, RSV, and influenza and reduce the impact of these diseases on our communities.
