@THE_ZENITH_COLELCTIVE Art that speaks, words that move 13/12/24 #ISSUE 1 ALL IMAGES CREDITED TO THE ORIGINAL CREATORS
Thank you for being part of our Issue #1. Whether your work has been featured or you’ve been following our journey, your support and contributions mean the world to us. It’s been a privilege to showcase the incredible talent of young creators, and we’re beyond excited to see this community grow. For this first issue, we wanted to ground ourselves in something deeply personal yet universal, the idea of “Your Chicago,” inspired by the DJO song "End of Beginning". Just like the song explores connections to place, memories, and identity, we invited contributors to reflect on what “your Chicago” means to them, whether it’s a physical space, a fleeting moment, or an emotion. The theme is a celebration of how individual experiences shape our understanding of the world, blending nostalgia, exploration, and self-expression. As we look ahead, we’re thrilled to continue growing this platform and exploring new ways to amplify your voices. Thank you for embarking on this creative adventure with us. Warmly, The Editors The Zenith Collective

at each other's side– a ceaseless rhythm told between orange peels and fresh linen sheets as we watched the city sleep. Under high-rise skies, we spoke about childhood dreams of encapsulating shooting stars within the cusps of our palms– until dawn flourished like ever-passing spring. @THE_ZENITH_COLELCTIVE
