Glass Dream Clouds in the Garden Show-
May 16th, 2-5pm I’ll be taking part in the second Gorgeous ‘Art in the Garden’ show, put on by my dear master gardening friend Gloria Sweet and her amazing musician husband Andy Sweet. Two years ago they featured all of my recent work and it was a profoundly meaningful experience. They bring so much love and support to our community and I’m honored to be part of it again. This time they’ll be featuring painter David Auld and sourdough bread maker Matt Milligan, as well as Andy’s amazing band and my Glass Dream Clouds floating from the trees. Let me know if you’d like to join us and I can share the details with you. I’d sure love to share this divine setting and gathering with you.
Follow me on Instagram or Facebook if you’d like to see more of my process and progress.
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.
