Barnabás Mármaros-Tóth

Barnabás Mármaros-Tóth is an 18-year-old Hungarian university student. He’s been writing poems for 7-8 years, but only as a hobby, he’s never received formal training. Although he mainly writes in Hungarian, he took on the challenge of writing in English for this expo. He mostly writes about his feelings as he believes that his deepest poems are born from unsaid words and unexpressed feelings, but he frequently takes a philosophical approach as well, that is more focused on the outside world.

He’s very passionate about poetry and he’s been recently submitting his poems for competitions to get unbiased feedback on the quality of their content. While he views poetry as self-expression, his ultimate goal is to have an impact on the reader.
