Shoreline was commissioned by SHFA as part of the development works at Darling Island. Shoreline, a group of timber structure reminiscent of simple maritime structures, such as navigation markers, wharves, cranes, and shipping fenders, marks the edge of the original harbour foreshore in Metcalfe Park.

The ninepieces that make up Shoreline are arranged in clusters and positioned perpendicular to the foreshore as it appears on the 1822 survey.
