Anatoliy was born in 1979 in Novoselytsia village of picturesque Mizhhiria, Zakarpattia Oblast. During 1995-1999 he was a student of the Uzhhorod College of Arts named after Adalbert Erdeli. In 1999-2005, he studied at the Lviv National Academy of Arts, majoring in Art of Metalwork.
Mostly Anatolyi works with metal, using either forging or embossing method. He lives and works in Uzhhorod. Anatolyi is an active symposia participant. He founded the Three Ivans workshop in Uzhgorod together with Oleh Putrashyk and Yan Potrohosh. There are over 10 artisans employed nowadays. This place occasionally hosts symposia, thematic lectures and workshops. The key goal of this workshop was to create a space for practising art and finally moving away from the commerce that, in the case of using metal, involves making fences and balconies.
The state I adore is about simple and essential things, things that everyone is familiar with.
In my case, it is two forms where one has lost its original form but gained beauty and serenity.
Serenity is the success of any work and leasure.
