Dragon’s odds and ends

Grisu has a dream
dragons should resist
since a drop might be
the void for their means

fire and rain
complementary and plain
are getting best friends
by nothing less

then visions and thoughts
of sparkling spirits
a dragon is made of

Milk gallery Istanbul recently had a show called, “the year of the dragon”.

“Siglia Grisu” is an Italian Animation movie having been broadcasted in the 1970th. It showed
the resistance of the little dragon Grisu against the plans of his father for him to become a firespitting dangerous dragon. He wants to be a firefighter.

Beside the clips of Grisu there are Artworks of dragons by Hatice Pamuk, Burak Şentürk, Cins,
Furkan Birgün and Uğur Unsoy from the exhibition: “The year of the dragon” at milk gallery,
Istanbul.
