MacGuffin #15 - The Stitch

Marking ten years of MacGuffin, this anniversary edition threads together unexpected stories and surprising perspectives, exploring how stitches shape, bind and define the things we make and the lives we lead. Featuring contributions from voices across disciplines and cultures, including Tanveer Ahmed, Line Arngaard, Kader Attia, Simona Bortis-Schultz, Rachel Dedman, Olivia Douglass, Jessica Hemmings, Chris Kabel, Ilona Keserü, Emily King, Masaki Komoto, Wietske Maas, Maria McLintock, Rosa Menkman, Johannes Reponen, Scheltens & Abbenes, Nina van de Ven, Hanka van der Voet – and many more.

MacGuffin is a platform featuring extraordinary stories about the life of ordinary things. In magazines, presentations and collaborations it discusses the numerous and sometimes curious relationships we have with the design that surrounds us. Each edition is based around a single object, exploring the highly familiar or utterly disregarded role it plays in our lives.
