Marko Tomaš (born 19 December 1978) is a Bosnian poet, essayist, and journalist.
He attended primary school in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Kljajićevo in Vojvodina, Serbia. He then finished high school in Sombor. Returning to Mostar, he enrolled in full-time law studies and the study of Bosnian language and literature. After two years, he interrupted his studies and, along with his friends, founded the Alternative Institute, an association dedicated to multimedia art projects. He also co-founded the literature magazine Kolaps together with Mehmed Begić, Nedim Ćišić, and others,[1] and the publishing house Kolaps Book Production, where he served as editor. He ran the cult Split bookstore UTOPIA. From 2001 to 2003, he resided in Sarajevo temporarily. He often changed his place of residence, so he also lived in Sarajevo, Zagreb, Belgrade, Split and many other cities throughout the former Yugoslavia. He currently lives in Mostar, where he serves as the spokesman and leader of the OKC Abrašević club.[2][3] In 2017, he signed the Declaration on the Common Language of the Croats, Serbs, Bosniaks and Montenegrins.[4]
