Regina Luminare is the balance, the counterpoint to Orpheo, from MacDonald's masterwork Cinema Architectonica. She is the light to his dark; the sun to his moon. MacDonald’s vision of Regina Luminaire is a feminine heroic figure that is exquisite in form and richly metaphoric. “Queen of Light” she carries the art of hope and the triangle of perfection. Regina’s power and presence is seen in the union of earth, sea and sky. Her being is emerging from the earth, wings show their ability to command the air and the waves show her dominion over the seas. The work exquisitely modeled and composed in that each curve has a counter curve. The draping and integration of the angular architectural forms and feminine lines is powerful and emotive. The lucite medium, with its unique light refracting properties, beautifully heightens the drama of the mythological story.
