This is actually insane. I am pretty short sighted and almost everyone of those is how I see everything without my glasses...
These fascinating paintings show what the world looks like for short-sighted people
In a world which increasingly values the work of hyper-realist painters, the creative output of Philip Barlow draws your attention immediately. But it takes a special effort to study his work, which forces you to look at a world of blurred silhouettes and bright, indistinct spots. In applying this style, Barlow shows us vividly what the world looks like for many people who have poor eyesight.
Here are a few of Barlow’s striking paintings for you to consider. For those of us who don’t have to wear glasses or contact lenses, they left a real long-lasting impression on us. It’s incredible to think that the world can seem so different depending on your perspective.
