Marino Piotti, in art Dean Marino, born in 1982, is an Italian sculptor/designer from Valtrompia. Since a young age he has lived with a close, tangible 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 goal is an indispensable connection between humans and nature. His mission is the regeneration of matter.
Knots and natural scars are emanations of the Wabi-sabi philosophy that envelops the sculpture

Morishi is a cedar table, worked 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 is still popular today.
The minimalist design and the Wabi-sabi philosophy in which it is infused make Morishi a perfect addition to any modern environment. An excellent choice for those seeking a unique design with a seamlessly integrable aesthetic in any setting. A great addition for any home, whether a modern space or a more traditional one.
Finish with oils and natural wax.
Technique:
Yakisugi (焼杉) is a traditional Japanese method for wood preservation. Yaki means heating with fire and sugi is cedar. In the West it is referred to as charred wood siding and also known as shou sugi ban (焼杉板) which uses the same kanji characters but a different pronunciation. The character ban means "table".
By lightly carbonizing the surface of the wood without burning the whole piece, the wood becomes waterproof 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 accepting the transience and imperfection of things. Such a view, sometimes described as "beautiful imperfection, transience and imperfection", is derived from the Buddhist teaching of anitya (impermanence).
