John Hurt Lightbox by Gavin Evans, 1997

Photographed in 1997 for Time Out magazine, this A2 Lightbox print presents six close-up colour portraits of John Hurt, set against a black background.

The sequence captures Hurt in extreme detail — every pore, line, and texture recorded without embellishment. At moments, the actor appears opposite and exactly as his name suggests: hurt. This Lightbox documents a raw, unguarded interaction, offering insight into both the sitter and the process behind the portrait.

Part of The Lightbox Series – The Bigger Picture, this print reveals the photographer’s role in shaping what is seen and how the subject responds to being seen.

Printed as an A2 open edition giclée on archival, acid and lignin-free 308 gsm satin matte cotton rag paper, embossed with Gavin Evans’ Open Edition stamp, and supplied unframed, ready for personal presentation and framing.
