Who am I?

Maren Kathrin Sauer or Marinsky

I was born in 2000 in Neustadt an der Weinstrasse, Germany, but grew up in Switzerland near Zurich from the age of 16 months.

I completed my professional goldsmith training (Bijoutière Joaillière CFC) at DYB (Swatch Group) in French-speaking Switzerland, which included an international placement in Paris. Since then, I’ve been working independently as a goldsmith — supporting workshops on Zurich’s Bahnhofstrasse with fine jewelry repairs and creating my own designs. Since 2024, I’ve also been leading goldsmithing courses for creative minds at Dynamo Zurich, where I enjoy sharing my craft and inspiring others through hands-on learning.

 

Alongside this, my artistic path has led me into the world of contemporary dance. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Contemporary Dance from the Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK), followed by engagements with Theater Münster (first as a trainee, then as a guest dancer), and freelance work with companies such as Nunzio Impellizzeri Dance Company & FLOCK, in Switzerland and abroad.

Since 2023, I’ve also been working with Danse Suisse, where I coordinate the national dance calendar and platform for professionals across the Swiss dance scene. In 2024, I completed my Mat Pilates certification, and I now teach regularly with a focus on body awareness, posture, and creative movement.
