Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny,
potter and ceramic artist based in Tucson, Arizona. Self-taught and neurodivergent, he has worked in the medium of stoneware clay for 21 years, developing a practice rooted in literal construction and obsessive repetition. He makes non-traditional ceramics in a medium built on tradition, exploring the overlap between wonder and revulsion. Subject matter includes sympathetic monsters, insects, opossums, fast food mascots, and Halloween kitsch.

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.

Stormtrooper Remains

Unfortunately, this is all that remains of the Stormtrooper Menorah. One of the stormtrooper molds came off when I was moving it, so I removed all of them and then noticed that the menorah itself was cracked and in two pieces, so I decided to dissolve it in water and start again. The Bossk image at the bottom is included as a bonus; I haven't found a use for it yet. I got the object used to make the mold at a store that sells comic books and action figures. They had a small box of detached parts of actions figures and the Bossk face was in there. It opens up to show very tiny images of Boba Fett and IG-88.




Another use of the stormtrooper image.
