With our CLINQ EDITION #12, we continue our research into Unforms of Nature from the previous season, and the deeper we immerse ourselves into the mysteries of nature, the more fascinated we have become with the phenomenon of growth. How miraculous and astonishing is the simple geometry of cells dividing and multiplying, growing in size, volume, and capacity, blossoming into branches, leaves, roots, fruit, living organisms?

Or pearls, for that matter, which we reintroduce in this season, in humble reference to that most curious of berries, the Symphoricarpos albus laevigatus, more commonly known as the snowberry. In stark contrast to the general cycle of seasons, snowberry plants bloom in a delicious light pink in late summer, with their fruit ripening and turning 
a soft white during fall and winter, which seems to perfectly embody that blurring of seasons and times these days, not to mention their enigmatic resemblance to pearls.
