The Yakisugi technique is one of the oldest methods of treating wood used in building construction in Japan. Also known as Shou Sugi Ban, Yakisugi is a dry wood treatment system that dates back to the 18th century. In addition to its resistance, the Yakisugi technique also offers a unique aesthetic finish that gives a natural, rustic and authentic look.
Wabi-sabi is an ancient Japanese philosophy that celebrates the beauty of imperfection and the transient nature of life. The idea of wabi-sabi is to appreciate the beauty of things that are imperfect, impermanent and incomplete. This concept can be applied to interior design and furniture as it encourages people to embrace the asymmetrical, rough, rustic and natural elements of design. Wabi-sabi furniture is often made from natural materials such as wood, bamboo or stone and has an organic, minimalist look. This style embraces the beauty of the imperfect, so furniture often has bumps, knots, cracks, and other imperfections that create a unique, rustic look. Wabi-sabi furniture is designed to focus on the beauty of the materials used and to celebrate the natural elements of the design.

Dean Marino (Marino Piotti)
A seven-hectare atelier to create his sculptures
An adult vocation, a self made artist, a great freedom of expression. Here is Marino, there is no need to ask him many questions because he is a river in flood (like his Mella, which comes from the Maniva and flows into the Oglio after 96 kilometers, when it is swollen after heavy rains).
On the other hand he worked as a merchant for a lifetime, he did not talk about art and only in 2019 did he discover his vein, following, as much as he needs, the wabi sabi, the Japanese philosophy that praises simplicity and imperfection in the beauty that passes.
In his mountain house, surrounded by seven hectares of meadows and woods, together with his dogs and goats, he finds energy, inspiration, he does not draw, he does not paint, he chooses the materials, recycled wood, stones without hiding their defects, indeed them exalts with the work of his hands, under the dictation of the heart and intuition.
On the other hand - he says - Mother Teresa of Calcutta was a physically small woman, not beautiful, she came from Albania, a country then behind the curtain, yet she became a great world star, known, loved, appreciated.
And he did good, so much good.
Here the art of Marino Piotti is a bit like the human story of this nun. He does not cut the tree, when a living being, like a piece of wood, like the pole of a roller shutter, has finished its use, he takes it back and makes him come back to life with his art, with his honest message.
Sometimes he also works metal as if to redeem it from the damnatio ad metalla, the sentence to forced labor practiced in ancient Rome
The works of Marino Piotti, depending on their size, can be placed on the table, in the entrance of the house, in a corner of the room. They are not furnishings, they are not furnishings, they are works of art that adorn your home; they are regenerated material with a new life that temper the spirit and wisdom of our daily life.
Many have understood this and in fact closely, as from France, the United States and elsewhere, want the sculptures of Dean Marino.
