About

For many years Jason Eskenazi collected the Double Zero frames (created when you close the camera back after loading your film and advancing to the first frame to start to shoot) from Kodak Tri-X film, normally snipped off, discarded and put in the trash. He began to see something ethereal in these images. Something on the cusp of being born and half-formed, but still in its embryonic phase. Double Zero are these frames culled from many trips over many years that had been left in a box. The series resolves itself from 00 - 0 to a full positive frame a nd thus resolving, becoming, being born. Photos are culled from Afghanistan, Turkey, Ukraine, and New York for the last 20 years.
