Marino Piotti, known professionally as Dean Marino, born in 1982, is an Italian sculptor/designer from Valtrompia. Since he was a boy, he has had a visceral connection with the elements of his homeland. He creates sculptures from natural materials such as wood and iron, giving them new life while maintaining a strong bond with his roots.
His aim is to create an essential connection between people and nature.
His mission is the regeneration of matter.
The natural knots and scars embody the Wabi-sabi philosophy that envelops the sculpture.

Its minimalist design and the Wabi-sabi philosophy that permeates it make Uchū a perfect addition to any modern setting. The natural hole where a branch once grew is a perfect embodiment of the Wabi-sabi philosophy.
It is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a coffee table with a unique design that blends seamlessly into any setting. It is a wonderful addition to any home, whether the space is modern or more traditional.
Finished with natural oils and wax.
Philosophy:
Wabi-sabi (侘寂) is a Japanese worldview, or aesthetic, based on accepting the transience and imperfection of things. This perspective, sometimes described as "imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete beauty," derives from the Buddhist doctrine of anitya (impermanence).
