Quoted from: Artwork by Jennifer Khoshbin - The Book Project 2: Refarm Spectacle Refarm Spectacle is a collaboration between artist Jen Khoshbin and philosopher Paul Lewis.   Second in a series of Book Projects, RfS has created 30 carved books to be "lost" on the sidewalks and alleyways of Houston Street, San Antonio, Texas.  By chance or inclination, pedestrians may discover, examine, take, or just ignore these books.  RfS continues to delve into facts and fiction, as a way of understanding our world.  Just inside the cover, we have altered the books with carvings, drawings, and intricate cuttings by imagining how books might react and alter themselves as an adaptation to harsh conditions.  This is a fairly open experiment, in which we are trying to ask some questions about the continual loss and recovery of meaning.  We are trying to uncover the highly improbable appearance of authenticity somewhere and somehow under our feet.
