From The Hermès Fall-Winter 2011/12 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: Passionate about physics and mathematics, Zoê Pauwels invites us to join an "infinite voyage: the creation of all matter". The sources of inspiration of this exuberant composition have names such as quarks and anti-quarks, photons and neutrons. Physics and mathematics are bearers of a poetry so elating that scientific minds concur in describing it as aesthetic. Likewise, the patterns that they generate: pure translations of thought, or representations of the unseeable phenomena on which all life depends. Is the double helix of DNA not an image of perfection itself? There's no magic, no miracle, just simple reality, rich and astounding.
