Marino Piotti, in art Dean Marino, born in 1982, is an Italian sculptor/designer from Valtrompia. From a young age he lives with a close, tangible relation to the elements of his country. He creates sculptures with natural elements such as wood and iron, gives them a new life and continually maintains a strong bond with his origins. His aim is to create an indispensable connection between man and nature. His mission is the regeneration of matter.
Stitches and natural scars are an emanation 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, producing a heat-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 embedded 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.
Finishing with oils and natural wax.
Technique:
Yakisugi (焼杉) is a traditional Japanese method for wood preservation. Yaki means to heat with fire and sugi is cypress. In the West it is referred to as charred wood cladding and also known as shou sugi ban (焼杉板), which uses the same kanji characters but has a mispronounced reading. 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 therefore harder. It also protects against insects and makes the wood flame-retardant.
Philosophy:
Wabi-sabi (侘寂) forms a world view of Japanese aesthetics, based on accepting the transience and imperfection of things. Such a vision, sometimes described as "beautiful imperfection, impermanence and incompleteness", is derived from the Buddhist teaching of anitya (impermanence).
