EDITORS COMMENTS
Peter Greenaway's A Zed & Two Noughts (1985) captures the essence of decay and projection in a mesmerizing way. This intriguing photo print, courtesy of the British Film Institute, transports us into a world where time seems to stand still. The image showcases an enigmatic scene featuring two zebra carcasses suspended from ropes against a decaying backdrop. The juxtaposition of lifeless animals with crumbling architecture evokes a sense of transience and impermanence. It is as if these once majestic creatures are frozen in time, forever trapped within this haunting tableau. Adding another layer of intrigue to this composition are the twins that flank either side of the zebra carcasses. Twins have long been associated with mystery and duality, symbolizing both harmony and discord. Their presence here hints at deeper themes explored within Greenaway's film – the interplay between order and chaos, life and death. Through his masterful use of light and shadow, Greenaway creates an atmosphere that is simultaneously eerie yet captivatingly beautiful. The meticulous attention to detail draws our gaze towards every crack in the walls or strand of hair on each twin's head. This print serves as a visual testament to Peter Greenaway's unique storytelling ability – one that challenges conventional narratives while exploring profound philosophical concepts. It invites us to delve into its depths, unraveling its mysteries with each passing glance.
