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 and thus resolving, becoming, being born. Photos are culled from Afghanistan, Turkey, Ukraine, and New York for the last 20 years.

ABOUT

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.
