Marino Piotti, in art Dean Marino, born in 1982, is an Italian sculptor/designer from Valtrompia. Since a young age he lives with a close, observable relationship with the elements of his country. He makes sculptures with natural elements such as wood and iron, gives them a new life and continually maintains the strong bond with his origin. His aim is to create an indispensable connection between man and nature. His mission is the regeneration of matter.
Knots and natural scars are emanations of the Wabi-sabi philosophy that surrounds the sculpture

Morishi is a cedar table, treated with the Yakisugi technique, an ancient Japanese method that burns wood with heat, creating a fire-resistant surface that reveals the beautiful grain patterns. The technique was used in Japan for centuries and remains popular today.
The minimalist design and the Wabi-sabi philosophy in which it is imbued make Morishi a perfect complement to any modern setting. An excellent choice for those seeking a unique design with a seamlessly integrable aesthetic in any environment. A great addition for any home, whether a modern space or a more traditional one. Finishes with oils and natural wax.
Technique:
Yakisugi (焼杉) is a traditional Japanese method for wood preservation. Yaki means burning with fire and sugi is cypress. In the West it is referred to as charred timber cladding and also known as shou sugi ban (焼杉板) which uses the same kanji characters but has a mispronunciation. The character ban means "table".
By superficially carbonizing the surface of the wood without burning the entire piece, the wood becomes water-resistant through carbonization and is therefore harder. It also protects against insects and makes the wood flame-retardant.
Philosophy:
Wabi-sabi (侘寂) forms a worldview of Japanese aesthetics, based on embracing the transience and imperfection of things. Such a vision, sometimes described as "beautiful imperfection, transience and imperfection", is derived from the Buddhist teaching of anitya (transience).
