Blue-Chip Artist Sir Daniel Winn Debuts Short Film “Creation”

[AS ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED ON SHEEN.COM]

Sir Daniel Winn is a man of many talents, most notably known for his fine art and opening his own Winn Slavin Fine Art gallery currently located on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. Known internationally, the blue-chip artist is now excited to be making his cinematic art debut on the experimental short film entitled Creation.

Running 18 minutes in length, Creation is a Kubrick-style short that showcases Sir Daniel Winn’s artistic philosophy of Existential Surrealism through a mixture of visuals, music, art and dance. The tagline? “Creation begins where destruction ends.”

The film follows an artist who comes from another realm as he enters earth through a mysterious portal. The artist then begins by meditating, as visions of inspiration come seeping through. As a result, he begins his “Creation.” It starts with earthly elements such as dirt and clay, before transforming into two breathtaking sculptures: one male and one female. 

Sir Daniel is the star of the film, which is produced by Emmy-winning producer Georges N. Chamchoum. Creation first debuted at the Asian World Film Festival in Los Angeles in 2022, and was recently accepted into the Experimental Dance & Music Film Festival, winning Best Long Format Short Film, and the Venice Shorts Film Festival, where it won Best Cinematography. In fact, it did so well that Daniel is submitting the film for Cannes Film Festival 2023 and planning the pre-production for the film’s feature-length version.
