Hlobus was born in Dzyarzhynsk Minsk Region in the family of Belarusian writer Vyacheslav Adamchyk (Vyachaslau Adamchyk). He and his family moved to Minsk in 1959, where he grew up. He graduated from the pedagogical department at the Minsk Art School, and the A.K. Glebov (1977) art department of the Belarusian Theatre and Art Institute (1983). He worked as a draftsman, painter and art restorer, graphic designer, and editor of Krynitsa, a publishing house, established in 1987. He is married to Alena Adamchyk, a Belarusian photographer. He has two children and a grandson.

He was one of the founding members of the informal association of young writers known as Tuteishyja (Tuteishyja, 1986 – 1990), which was not only a literary group but an active socio-political group as well. Specifically, the union organized a protest against Stalin's repressions called "Forefathers Eve”, during which thousands of Belarusians marched, in October 1988. This became a reoccurring event for Belarusians in the following years. Hlobus was a member of the Writer's Union in 1988 and the Union of Belarusian Writers since 1989.

The first publications of poetry were in 1981 (Weekly Literatura i Mastatstva, journal Maladost). His book Grud, published in 1985, was banned and ruined by the regime representatives. Today the poems and short stories of Hlobus are translated into many languages, and Hlobus's works are published in English, German, Slovenian, Czech, Polish, Russian, Ossetian, and Catalan. In the Russian books Werewolves (released in 1991), Demonokameron (1993), and Lyrics BY clause (2007), they were each composed of poetry translations by Russian poets from Alexander Eremenko, Alexey Parschikov, Vyacheslav Kupriyanov, Dmitry Mizgulin, and lyrical prose translated by Svyatozar Barchenko and Alexey Andreev.
