Serafín Ziquer Xavier



(Former known as Glenn)
I am a professional multimedia artist with a Swedish/Brazilian background, specializing in acting, performance, movement art/coaching, sound, video, and animation. My passion lies in combining different art forms into one cohesive work, allowing me to express myself through various media.

Artistic Vision

I am deeply inspired by the "imperfect" human being, embracing our flaws and fragility. My work often explores figurative realism, portraying the raw and authentic aspects of humanity.

Professional Experience

Since 1995, I have worked as a freelancer both nationally and internationally. My projects have included:
  • Theatre Productions
  • Swedish Television
  • Danish Television
  • MTV
  • Netflix
  • Short Films
  • Commercials

Also the Reumert-nominated web series "room4.one" and "Room4.1-LIVE" by Kristjan Ingimarsson.

Current Projects

While freelancing, I am also working on my own multimedia project, which you can learn more about at www.zerafílm.com



Reviews

  • Sceneblog - ROOM4.1-LIVE
    • DK: "Og kun fordi det er fremragende performere – som Glenn Ziquer Xavier og Noora Hannula –fungerer det efter hensigten."
    • EN: "And only because of excellent performers like Glenn Ziquer Xavier and Noora Hannula, it works as intended."
  • Henrik Lyding - Middleton
    • DK: "Glenn Ziquer Xavier er nemlig et under af komisk bevægelseskunst."
    • EN: "Glenn Ziquer Xavier is a wonder of comic movement art."
  • Michael Søby - CPH CULTURE - FOREVER YOUNG
    • DK: "Alligevel kan det ikke skjules, at den svenske skuespiller Glenn Ziquer Xavier er og bliver aftenens stjerne, og formår både at få børn og bedstemødre til at le, hvad enten han agerer varulv eller superhelt."
    • EN: "Still, it can't be hidden that the Swedish actor Glenn Ziquer Xavier becomes the star of the evening, and manages to make both children and grandmothers laugh, whether he is a werewolf or a superhero."
  • CPHCULTURE - MIDDLETON
    • DK: "Men stjernen er i år svenskeren Glenn Ziquer Xavier, der virker næsten uhyggelig overbevisende som menneskelig robot. Hans bevidst mekaniske kropssprog er krydret med humoristiske overraskelser, og så laver han samtidig en eminent lydkulisse, der låner en forbløffende autenticitet til bevægelserne..."
    • EN: "But this year, the star is Glenn Ziquer Xavier, who seems almost creepily convincing as a human robot. His deliberately mechanical body language is spiced with humorous surprises, and he creates an eminent soundscape that lends astonishing authenticity to the movements."
  • Morten Hede - SULT/HUNGER
    • DK: "Glenn Ziquer Xavier leverer mimisk en præstation langt ud over det sædvanlige. Hans ansigt kan lægges i folder, som er en Thomas Mørk værdig. Han har en komisk sans, som får hans små lyde, der ikke engang er ord, til at virke som knivskarpe punchlines – udelukkende ved hjælp af timing og kropslig fornemmelse. Hans hovedrolle i 'Sult' bliver vulgært overspillet, men samtidig med den dybeste sikkerhed og troværdighed. Han kan spille en kærlighedsscene som en Romeo og en grådighedsscene som en Harpagon. Og sulten gør ham lige så omsorgsvækkende som den lille pige med svovlstikkerne."
    • EN: "Glenn Ziquer Xavier delivers a mimical performance far out of the ordinary. His face is Thomas Mørk worthy. He has a comical sense that makes his small sounds, which are not even words, seem like razor-sharp punchlines solely through timing and bodily sensation. His starring role in 'Hunger' is vulgarly overplayed, but with the deepest seriousness and credibility. He can play a love scene like Romeo and a greed scene like Harpagon. And the hunger makes him as caring as The Little Match Girl."
  • Inge Rogat Møller - JV SULT/HUNGER
    • DK: "Glenn Ziquer Xavier er en stor oplevelse, der dominerer scenen med sin insisterende og dramatiske tilstedeværelse."
    • EN: "Glenn Ziquer Xavier is a huge experience, who dominates the stage with his insistent and dramatic presence."
  • BYENKALDER.DK - Sunshine
    • DK: "Glenn Ziquer Xavier smider sig selv rundt så hele båden ryster af grin."
    • EN: "Glenn Ziquer Xavier throws himself around so the entire boat shakes with laughter."
  • Monna Dithmer - Mysteriet om den gyldne skarabæ/The Mystery of the Golden Scarab
    • DK: "Når Knuds bedre jeg spilles af et fund af en spiller, den svenske danser Glenn Ziquer Xavier..."
    • EN: "When Knud's better half is played by such a catch of an actor, the Swedish dancer Glenn Ziquer Xavier..."
