LAW Issue 10, titled Folklore, Faith & Unity, delves into the rich tapestry of British culture, exploring short stories, tall tales, modern myths, and rural rituals across the British Isles. Featuring contributions from Jeremy Deller, King Krule, Destiny Boka-Batesa, and many more, this edition captures the essence of British folklore and modern identity. As the culmination of five years of work, this issue represents a pivotal chapter in LAW’s first decade, dedicated to the memory of Thomas Edward Holt, embodying a deep reverence for tradition, community, and resilience.
The design of Issue 10 mirrors the magazine’s commitment to substance and craftsmanship. Encased in a printed outer shell with two intersecting belly bands, the package encloses three saddle-stitched magazines spanning 174 pages, presented across five alternating paper stocks. With the addition of two Risograph inserts and exclusive screen-printed stickers by LAW and Gasius, the tactile, layered experience encourages readers to slowly uncover its contents, much like a procession through British heritage. The issue stands as a timeless, precious, and provocative tribute to the power of unity in the face of division.
