In
2000, István Tarrósy visited Africa for the first time, spending several weeks
in Tanzania and Egypt. The experience of being immersed in the everyday
realities of sub-Saharan and North African life left a profound impact on him.
From that moment on, they felt a strong connection to Africa, as many other
travellers before them had also experienced and described as the 'Africa bug'.
Since 2000, István Tarrósy has been focusing on Africa, conducting research,
writing, and teaching about the continent. Their research primarily examines
sub-Saharan African countries, issues, and processes, which he supports with
field research. Since 2006, he has been returning regularly to the unique
landscapes and spaces of Africa, to different parts of the diverse and
captivating continent, where he is captivated by the unique reality of human
relations and the coexistence of 'human-nature'. It is a milieu that he always
wants to be a part of, to return to, and one that is difficult to escape
from.
