Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny,
potter and ceramic artist based in Tucson, Arizona. Self-taught and neurodivergent, he has worked in the medium of stoneware clay for 21 years, developing a practice rooted in literal construction and obsessive repetition. He makes non-traditional ceramics in a medium built on tradition, exploring the overlap between wonder and revulsion. Subject matter includes sympathetic monsters, insects, opossums, fast food mascots, and Halloween kitsch.

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.

Distorted Chef WIP

View the completed Red Chef here.

In December, I bought two chef figurines at a dollar store.  I made molds of their faces and objects from the molds in this post.  Tonight I made a copy/interpretation of one of the chefs.  The figure itself is a distortion of human anatomy and I added another layer of distortion myself.  The arms were the most annoying part.  The left arm seems more distorted than the right arm, but I couldn't figure out what was making it look off.
