Technique: Yakisugi Philosophy: Wabi-sabi Materials: Cedar Marino Piotti, known as Dean Marino, born in 1982, is an Italian sculptor/designer originally from Valtrompia. Since childhood he has lived a visceral relationship with the elements of his land. He creates sculptures with natural elements such as wood and iron, giving them a new life, while maintaining a strong connection to his origins. His objective is to create an indispensable connection between man and nature. His mission is the regeneration of matter. Natural nodes and scars are an emanation of the Wabi-sabi philosophy that envelops the sculpture Exhibitions: Palazzo Facchi "the dreamers" 2021 (Brescia) Valley Inc. 2021 (Brescia) "Origins" 2022 (Brescia) "Contemporaneamente" 2023 (Brescia) "recycledart" 2023 Brescia Permanent Exhibition "Alisani Bistrot" "FUTURA EXPO 2023" Chabudai is a cedar coffee table worked with the yakisugi technique, an ancient Japanese method that uses heat to burn the wood, creating a surface that is fire-resistant and reveals the wonderful grain. The technique has been used in Japan for centuries and is still popular today. The minimalist design and the Wabi-sabi philosophy in which it is permeated make Chabudai a perfect addition to any modern environment. It is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a table with a unique design that integrates seamlessly into any setting. A great addition for any home, whether modern or more traditional. Finished with natural oils and wax. Technique used: Yakisugi (焼杉) is a traditional Japanese method of preserving wood. Yaki means to heat with fire and sugi is cedar. In the West it is referred to as burnt wood cladding and also known as shou sugi ban (焼杉板) which uses the same kanji characters but with an erroneous pronunciation. The character ban means "board". By slightly carbonizing the surface of the wood without burning the entire piece, the wood becomes waterproof through carbonization and is therefore more durable. It also protects against insects, in addition to making the wood flame-retardant. Philosophy: Wabi-sabi (侘寂) constitutes a Japanese worldview, or aesthetics, based on accepting the transience and imperfection of things. This view, sometimes described as "beautiful imperfection, impermanence, and incompleteness," derives from the Buddhist doctrine of anitya (impermanence).
