The Perfect Union
Every year in the coldest weeks of the winter season, strange sculptures begin to appear in the fields all over the island. It is the moment for grafting.
Wild olive trees grow throughout the island and they produce perfectly tiny olives with a thin and bitter skin. However, though the oil from wild olives is supposedly superior to that of domesticated varieties, the yield is much, much lower. And so the grafting game begins.

P.A.M. Perks and Mini
P.A.M. (Perks and Mini) is Shauna Toohey and Misha Hollenbach. They are stubbornly undefinable - using their creativity to design clothes & graphics, create publications, sculptures, soundtracks, connections and a beautiful family unit. At the base of all of their work is a strictly personal creativity that stems from their openness to appreciate the world around them.
What was your strongest impression of Sardinia?
Shauna: Time expands slowly, you have more time in an hour. And seeing as time is the only thing that is finite and that you can’t buy or trade I think it’s a real treasure.
Misha: Maggot cheese.
