The Legend of the Golden Koi 

visual retelling of an ancient Chinese folklore, Illuminate Graduate Pathway Program recipient and local SA artist Jake Yang presents this timeless story of perseverance and determination against insurmountable odds. Reimagined through beautiful ceramic work and projection to present the koi’s hundred-year struggle to reach the top of the waterfall, sit by the water and ponder this delightful celebration of courage.

The Illuminate Graduate Pathway Program is made possible with thanks to the generous support from the James & Diana Ramsay Foundation.
