Marin de Boer (1987) vervolgde na de opleiding theatervormgeving aan Academie Minerva haar studie met een Master of Arts Scenography aan het Frank Mohr Institute te Groningen. Hier kwamen fascinatie voor het landschap en de theatrale ruimte samen in een onderzoek naar landschap en kunst in verbinding met de aanwezige/afwezige mens.
In 2011 sloot zij zich als freelance theatermaker/vormgever aan bij locatietheatergezelschap PeerGrouP. Tot 2017 realiseerde ze onder andere de vormgeving voor de voorstellingen Circus in Veen, Ruilen, Kiemkracht (in co-productie met het Houten Huis en Gouden Haas), maar schreef en produceerde ook de voorstelling Roodkapje op het Balloërveld (in samenwerking met de schaapskudde van Balloo) en de luisterwandeling Levende Duinen op Oerol 2016. Tevens begeleid ze regelmatig studenten, stagiaires en beginnend makers.
Sinds 2017 werkt ze als Curator en Creatief Producent voor Oerol en programmeert zij de Expeditie route.
