Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny,
ceramic artist and potter in Tucson, Arizona.

I work in the medium of stoneware clay and make hand-built pottery, sculpture, hamsas, ornaments, masks, and a variety of other forms.

I’m a self-taught autistic artist working in my medium for over twenty years. I like monsters, insects, weird animals, body horror, folk horror, horror comedy, horror in general, Halloween decorations, fast food mascots, kitsch – all of these creep into my work, but there’s really no overarching theme.

I am in love with my medium. I love the process of frantically birthing clay monstrosities, subjecting them to an epic trial by fire, and sending them out into the world.

Zuckuss Column

The Zuckuss Column has been sitting on my shelf for a few months. It lost a chunk out of the column. I used a mysterious substance called Magic Slip to attempt to reattach it, but it was unsuccessful, so I glazed it anyway with the piece missing.

Zuckuss is a character from the famous bounty hunter scene in The Empire Strikes Back. He is from the planet Gand and his species is also known as the Gand. He can be seen for a few seconds standing with his fellow bounty hunters, including his droid partner 4-LOM, and Darth Vader.






Here you can see the missing piece of the column.
