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.

Cat Head 4

I considered making salt and pepper shakers shaped like cats for Janell for Christmas, but I couldn't get them to come out anything near cute and I knew she wouldn't like them if they were scary or deranged.  This was one of the cat prototypes.






 This is meant to be wearable art.  It has a hole through the back.  I took several pictures of myself wearing Cat Head 4 as a necklace, but I'm very uncomfortable putting images of myself on this blog, although I have done it a few times in the past and as far as I know, I didn't end up on any Bad Art Pornography sites.  So, here is one bad photo with the eyes blacked out and two (IMO) decent photos with low resolution.  My point is that it can be worn.
