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.

Spiral Menorah 3
This is my third spiral menorah. The first one had a glaze anomaly and turned out very poorly when I attempted the reglaze it. The second one fell and broke before I had the chance to bisque fire it. This one is my first regulation menorah, with all of the candle holders except the one for the shamas at the same height.
