Inspired by the Roman goddess of the Dawn, Aurora embodies renewal, hope, and the first light of a new day. Suspended between earth and sky, the figure appears to levitate effortlessly, draped in sweeping crimson folds that both support and elevate her. A guardian of light and a symbol of transformation, Aurora captures the beauty of a fleeting moment made eternal.

Modeled by Olympian aerialist Christina Van Loo, the sculpture is a masterful fusion of classical mythology and contemporary artistry. Rooted in figurative realism, Aurora showcases Richard MacDonald's renowned ability to dissolve the boundary between weight and weightlessness, creating an extraordinary illusion of suspension. Every curve, fold, and structural element has been meticulously designed to achieve a sense of grace, balance, and impossibility.

First unveiled during Richard MacDonald's 80th Milestone Celebration in Monterey, California, Aurora immediately captivated collectors with its elegance, symbolism, and breathtaking presence.
