Performance Reel

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEVBTj_QtlM

A three chapter video that illustrates the direction of my work as a performance artist. The first chapter depicts an installation that was performative; I methodically tied a net of roughly 2000 red bags in a semi-public courtyard beside a cafe. The second chapter shows two instances where I have taken an object in a domestic space and spontaneously created movements. The third chapter is a study for a larger site-specific performance to take place at the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles and shows an intuitive reading of a man-made structure in the midst of protected wildlife.

"Staten Island Road Trip" Trailer



A documentary shot in 21 days. The period of "cultural immersion" in Staten Island was directed towards uncovering stories that exist below the surface of a type-cast community.

Paper Chickens

Paper Chickens from Janeva Zentz on Vimeo.


A few years ago I collected shredded documents from the Wall Street area and with WATER re-constituted the trash into sculptural paper forms. The paper became part of a larger work that referenced transient shelters. Here is a video of the installation along with some words about my original intentions.
