Travel has often provided inspiration for Koop. This voyage along one of Canada\u2019s most significant and fabled waterways not only provided a shared experience for the artist and the filmmakers, it also allowed the audience to share in some of the raw visual materials Koop uses to create her art.<\/p>\n<p>\"I was making a documentary about an artist who didn't want to be filmed painting,\" says Knight. So instead, she filmed Koop as she gathered inspiration. \"It was about putting the audience into the framework that the artist works in. So the audience can actually travel along with the artist.\"<\/p>\n<p>The examination of the visual continues as the film looks at\u00a0the science of vision, colour and perception. It places the audience in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cvr.yorku.ca\/home\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">York Centre for Vision Research<\/a>, where Koop has her vision tested by\u00a0York senior research scientist\u00a0Olivera Karanovic and Laurie Wilcox, graduate program director in the Department of Psychology,\u00a0in the 3D Vision Research lab to\u00a0take a look at\u00a0how\u00a0she sees \u2013 she apparently has great 3D vision.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/photos\/20110222\/WandaKoopVisionLab.jpg\" alt=\"\" hspace=\"8\" vspace=\"8\" width=\"350\" height=\"256\" align=\"left\" \/>Left: <\/strong>Artist Wanda Koop has her vision checked in the York Vision Research lab\u00a0in the opening scene of\u00a0the film <em>Koop<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The artist\u2019s studio as a factory of the imagination also plays a role in the work created, and the film explores this, taking the audience into Koop\u2019s newly renovated factory, where she makes, archives and markets her artwork. There, hundreds of paintings, thousands of sketches and tables full of the painter\u2019s tools contribute to the visual and physical space.<\/p>\n<p>\"I'm really interested in making documentaries about artists that get inside the creative process,\" says Knight, a longtime friend of Koop and fan of her art. Koop has won several national and international awards for her artistic achievements and was made a member of the Order of <span>Canada in 2006. In 1998, she founded Art City as a storefront art centre in Winnipeg. The goal is to bring together contemporary visual artists and inner-city youth to explore the creative process.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<blockquote>\n<li><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/photos\/20110222\/\/WandaKoopStudio.jpg\" alt=\"\" hspace=\"8\" vspace=\"8\" width=\"350\" height=\"234\" align=\"right\" \/>Right: <\/strong>Wanda Koop's studio<\/li>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Several alumni worked on the documentary, including project editor Jared Raab (BFA Spec.
