The project continues Druecke's exploration of the ways in which culture inscribes itself into the landscape, what Druecke refers to as “public inscription.” The plaque's two texts blur the distinction between public and private while commemorating the act of sharing a meal near water's edge.

Shoreline Repast was commissioned by Sculpture Milwaukee for their inaugural series of high-profile work in downtown. The piece was installed in O’Donnell Park between Calatrava’s addition to the art museum and di Suvero’s The Calling. Matt Wild ranked the piece in the top three writing for Milwaukee Record.

Druecke talks about the work for Sculpture Milwaukee’s website in conjunction with the work’s 2020 reinstallation in Catalano Square.
