About This Fine Art Black And White Print
“Weeping Tetris” is a fine art black and white print made on a rainy day at the Port of Onahama in Iwaki City, Fukushima, Japan. The photo isolates a group of massive concrete forms, stacked like oversized Tetris blocks, their edges softened and streaked by rain and time. Photographed with a Hasselblad 503CX medium format camera and Ilford Pan F film, the scene is stripped down to geometry, contrast, and quiet tension.
Geometry, Weight, and Weather
Centered just above a ridge of grass, the forms rise against a blank sky. Their surfaces are streaked with rain. The image balances rigid repetition with slight imperfections—cracks, stains, and softness in the light. Negative space gives the shapes room to breathe, while the overcast sky amplifies their presence. It’s a portrait of mass and design under weather.
Handcrafted in the Darkroom
Printed by hand on silver gelatin fiber paper, this fine art black and white print brings out both the weight and delicacy in the scene. The deep blacks, fine tonal transitions, and rich surface texture create a physical print experience that digital media can’t replicate. This piece is ideal for collectors drawn to architectural minimalism, industrial forms, and the poetic possibilities of photographic seeing.
