Jeff Zimmerman’s Bubble Cluster with Spikes is a distinctive illuminated sculpture that showcases his expertise in hand-blown glass artistry. This statement lighting piece for your home, created in 2023,  features a cluster of hand-blown glass bubbles interspersed with spike-like protrusions, creating a dynamic and organic form. The sculpture is mounted on a brass structure, adding to its aesthetic appeal. To me, it resembles fluffy kernels of popcorn bursting into the air or a billowing cloud crackling with electric blue lightning.

Created in 2023, the Bubble Cluster with Spikes measures 48 inches in length, 47 inches in width, and 54 inches in height. This unique work exemplifies Zimmerman’s innovative approach to glass design, blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary aesthetics.

Zimmerman’s work often blurs the lines between functional design and sculptural art. His creations are reactions to their environment, serving as installations that occupy space in a home that might otherwise be underutilized. They appear to float untethered, adding a unique dimension to interior spaces.
