Praise for Marilyn Freeman’s The Illuminated Space: A Personal Theory and Contemplative Practice of Media Arts, an especially reassuring book for these uncertain times. Available now at The 3rd Thing Press.
In this startlingly beautiful and evocative work combining essay, poetry and prayer-like reflection, Marilyn Freeman unwinds the many elusive strands of the creative process… I felt as though I was hearing the voice of great mystic calling to me through time, through distance, through fog, speaking to me personally. – Judith Valente, author of many spirituality titles including How To Live
In a lyrical, devoutly modest and vibrantly alive voice, Freeman awakens us to numinous possibilities that await both in art and in the whole wide world around us. It is a book of uncommon grace. – Bill Nichols, author of numerous film books including Introduction to Documentary, 3rd ed
