These are fragments that manifested during the construction of the Smilin' "Bob" clock pieces.
This one is my favorite. The clay stuck to the mold. The face was distorted, so I threw it on the floor, and yet somehow the face survived. It's almost a fucking Christmas miracle!
The others aren't as miraculous, but I still found them worth keeping.
My next clock is going to use permutations of this face, another doll from the studio whose name is Buzzcut.

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.
