Created in Spring 2021, one year after the COVID-19 pandemic began affecting Chicago. While the pandemic continues on, we have found ourselves acclimating and adapting to these novel circumstances, each of us finding our new normal. This zine, while made up of poetry and visual art which is not limited to the subject matter of COVID-19, is contextualized in place and time in Chicago, one year into the COVID-19 pandemic.
