Installing this floating glass sculpture ‘Woman Holding Space for Kiddo’ in it’s new forever home♥️
So Honored to Announce-
In October I had the privilege of installing a large body of my work into one very special space. Tom and I had fun brainstorming how to do this with my 5 ‘Floating Figures’, 3 ‘Breastplates’ and 9 ‘Horizon Clouds’ (a total of 17 pieces). It was quite a challenge but they look amazing in this wonderful new healing center in Redwood City, CA.
It’s my newest work, and in light of my health struggles, this feels like a personal victory (and idyllic collaboration) with founder, Sutida Majarone, of GoodLivingHealth.com, who has genuine enthusiasm for my work and generously featured it in her grand opening of her new clinic. In her beautiful new space she’s now able to help even more people with her genuine compassion and cutting edge treatments. And I love knowing my art is there to cheer others along on their health journey.
Another wonderful honor was having one of my Breastplateslates selected for the juried “Artists Choice Show” at the San Francisco Women Artist Galle
A few pieces are still available for sale at the healing center and can be viewed in person by appointment. Or you can see them here on my website. If you’re drawn to a piece, please feel free to connect with me. I know it’s not always easy to navigate the process of investing in artwork, so I’m happy to help/chat no matter what the end result is.
The past few months has been a fun flurry of preparation, installation and wonderful responses to my work and I’m deeply grateful for the people who’ve invested in my work and also that my health allowed me the energy to do it all. I’ve love every minute of following this creative journey. And I hope you too are finding ways to feel buoyed by life in these tricky times.

Welcome
I’m Zora Neuhold-Huber, an artist based in Northern California who’s primary medium is glass, using an innovative systems of joining hand blown and stained glass as well as reclaimed mirror and window glass.
My artistic roots can be traced back to my fathers woodwork shop, my mothers weekend painters co-op and a chance encounter with the glow of hot glass furnaces on a late night walk during college in Madison, Wisconsin. Earning a fine arts degree there in 1985 I launched into a lifelong fascination with all glass and this unusual way of working with it.
I first taught glassblowing and design at Punahou Academy in Hawaii and then started a family. Eventually the art became more private, inward and primal as I transitioned into teaching yoga as my primary source of income. Then life took a turn, I got very ill with a mysterious illness that was eventually diagnosed as neurological Lyme disease.
Unable to continue teaching yoga, I leaned into my art to help me understand how to survive this illness. And now, almost 10 years later, my art has become the primary way to harvest insight and resilience to help me cope. It’s helped me see that life can feel simultaneously shattered and beautiful…just like the glass.
It’s a privileged to still be alive, to tread this creative path and become more public with the art. And I hope you might find it of interest or inspiration. Please be in touch.
