Unfocus

by Tania Sanjurjo

Unfocus is an ongoing analog photography project that investigates perception and the instability of vision. By placing friends’ eyeglasses in front of the camera lens, each photograph is shaped by a shared gaze, merging different ways of seeing into a single image. 

This simple intervention transforms ordinary spaces, domestic interiors, urban streets, and social environments into layered visual fields where sharpness and blur coexist. The resulting images oscillate between recognition and abstraction, questioning the reliability of sight and the idea of a fixed reality.

Developed over several years, the project explores how vision is never purely individual but always mediated by bodies, tools and relationships. Unfocus proposes photography not as a neutral recording device but as a site of negotiation between perception, memory and presence.

Rather than documenting places, the work examines how we inhabit them visually, suggesting that reality is continuously altered by attention, distance and the act of looking.
