Dmytro Kushniruk

Dmytro Kushniruk was born in 1970 to an engineer and an English teacher. He spent his childhood and adolescence ski jumping. He graduated from high school in Kyiv in 1986.

In 1990, after serving in the Soviet Army, he enrolled in Gregory Dochkin’s welding school. In 1992, he opened his own workshop and continued his creative work. In 2019, a Ukrainian film company produced the documentary Titanium Tamers.

Since 2022, Dmytro Kushniruk has lived in Toronto, Canada, where a new workshop specialising in artistic titanium welding has been established. We are planning to open a school specialising in titanium welding in the near future.
