Sophie Chahinian is a filmmaker and the founder of the The Artist Profile Archive (TAPA). TAPA produces short artist documentary profiles on contemporary artists to create an archive thereby making contemporary art more accessible to wider audiences. All the films are  available for free on TAPA’s website and social media channels. Her recent documentary profiles include Alexandra Grant and Robert Longo. Growing up in Los Angeles, Chahinian became interested in independent film production through her work with Light and Space artist Eric Orr in the late 1990s.

She and Zuckerman discuss the creativity of the kitchen, the effortful and effortless, commitments, discipline and schedules, changing perspectives, “just fine,” the types of questions we ask, democratizing access to art, transcendence found in art, becoming an expert, understanding who we are, the concept of the oneness, art as seduction, and defining the parameters of our own humanity!
