My only complaint is that the piece is described as "Chairy Chair," which makes my skin crawl. Chairy needs no appelation.
I started a new series of clay chairs. This is the first one.
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.

Speaking of Chairs
If have a friend who works for a museum in Tucson called La Pilita. The museum is holding an auction to raise funds and for some reason the theme is chairs. Most of the donations are real chairs painted by local artisans. My friend asked me to donate this clay interpretation of Chairy from Pee-Wee's Playhouse. Here are the two photos she posted to Facebook.
