MacGuffin 11: The Chain unspools the tangled lives of one of the world’s most loaded objects. From delicate charms to heavy shackles, this issue traces the chain’s many forms and meanings; adornment and imprisonment, connection and constraint. Winding through history, fashion, rebellion, and technology, it links royals with rappers, hyperlinks with haunted houses, and everything in between. Featuring contributions from Inigo Laguda, Jacqueline de Jong, Harris Blondman, Scheltens & Abbenes, and more, this edition is a dazzling exploration of how one object can carry both beauty and burden, desire and defiance.
