If you have vision problems, you know how different the world is without glasses. Blurry, indistinct but also very suggestive from a certain point of view.

The South African artist Philip Barlow wanted to make everyone experience the sensation of not seeing anything clearly, just by taking off their glasses.

His paintings are very much liked both by those who personally know the feeling very well and can now finally show it to others and by those who have no problems with their vision but who have always wondered how a world without glasses would appear to near-sighted people.
