A Vernacular of the Numinous

Expansive, tranquil motion imagery of daily life unfolds alongside a spoken meditation on the bustle of modern existence and its quiet mystical moments, A Vernacular of the Numinous stands as a poetic meditation on the extraordinary found within the ordinary. This contemplative film, born from an invitation to participate in Unpoetry at Seattle's Frye Art Museum in response to Hugh Hayden: American Vernacular, marks the newest addition to Freeman's A Vernacular of the Numinous within Cinema Divina—the program of short films created through and for contemplative practice.
