Born in 1993, Bartłomiej Pitala began his dream adventure with diving at the age of 18. He has always been fascinated by the hidden and unknown. In diving, he is most attracted to the wrecks of the Baltic Sea, shrouded in a dark aura of mystery, as well as distant and unexplored parts of caves.
In search of his unique style of presenting the treasures of the underwater world, since 2020, he has been engaged in 3D underwater photogrammetry, mainly of Baltic wrecks. Encouraged by the promising results of his work, he decided to bring the created scans into the real world using 3D printing technology.
Currently, he has over twenty wreck models scanned at depths of up to 85 meters, also in collaboration with the Baltictech group and the National Maritime Museum. These scans, 3D printed and hand-painted, provide a beautiful and very interesting form of presenting the silent witnesses of history lying deep beneath the surface of the water.
He is the author of several articles and lectures on the subject of wreck photogrammetry in 3D.
