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.

Cthulhu Religious Object #6
This Cthulhu Idol broke in several places in the kiln. It could have been tiny air pockets in the extremities or some other unforeseeable kiln accident, but I suspect someone dropped it. It's not one of my better Cthulhuines, so it's not a great loss. I glued the pieces back together and painted it with acrylics.
