Katinka Marac is a space and lighting designer and visual dramaturg for contemporary dance and performance, working internationally with a base in Amsterdam. Her professional practice consists of several strands. She is strongly affiliated and collaborates with independent choreographers, mostly trained at the School for New Dance Development and visual artists who create and present work in the frame of theatre and performance. Most of the projects she designs for border on dance and visual art, where all elements of a production are seen as horizontal and working processes are shaped according to that. Where choreography is created between movement, light and space, and light not only supports story but in itself can become story, experience or scenario.

She has worked for Golden Palace, Sara Wookey, Lidy Six, Martin Nachbar, Roser Lopez Espinosa, Daniel AlmgrenRecen, Noha Ramadan, Sasa Asentic, Andrea Bozic, Ibrahim Quraishi, Alma Soderberg, Emily Roysdon, Emilie Gallier, Lester Arias, Esther Arribas and Anthonie Nestel, Fernando Belfiore and Vincent Riebeek. In addition to her work as a lighting designer, Katinka designs autonomous light installations.
