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.

Tirapheg Figure

The Tirapheg is a three-headed monstrosity from the AD&D Fiend Folio. Its head, arms, and legs occur in sets of three, the central body part with detailed features and the two peripheral parts eerily blank. It has a mouth in its belly surrounded by three tentacles.

Buy this Tirapheg because you may regret it if you don't.
