The tide streams in, filling the inlets with it’s long
fingers, slapping among the mangroves, carrying the splash of
fish,flowing from the deep sea into the deep land, leaving traces
of a way of living in the heart and habits of life.
- Virginia King, February 2004.
This is an excerpt of a poem written on the ‘Reed
Vessel’, an elevated vessel form supported on a cradle 4.5
metres above a pool of water in the wetlands of Docklands Park. The
work appears to emerge from the water, a symbol of the rekindled
spirit of Docklands.
The Empire presents… Docklands Park. The fifth cache
by The Empire is located at Docklands Park in one of
Melbourne’s newest residential areas.
This is a small cache. Inside the object you seek is a
concealed bison tube that contains a micro write-in-the-rain log.
There is no room for swaps. BYO pen and be careful when replacing
the cache.
