Welcome

I’m Zora Neuhold-Huber, an artist based in Northern California who’s primary medium is glass, using a simple but unusual systems of joining hand blown & stained glass as well as reclaimed mirror and architectural glass.

My artistic roots trace back to my father’s wood shop, my mothers weekend painters co-op and a chance encounter with the glow of hot glass furnaces on a late night walk in my college town of 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.

At first I taught glassblowing and design at Punahou Academy in Hawaii and then started a family, becoming very private, inward and primal with my art as I transitioned into teaching yoga for our primary income.

In 2016 life took a rather big turn. I got very ill with a mysterious illness (eventually diagnosed as neurological Lyme disease). Unable to continue teaching yoga, I leaned into my art to help me understand how to survive. And now, 10 years later, my art has become the primary way I harvest insight and resilience to help me cope. It’s helped me see that life can feel simultaneously shattering and beautiful…just like the glass I love so much.

It’s a privileged to still be alive, to tread this creative path and now become more public with the art. And I hope you might find it of interest or inspiration and I’d love to hear ab
