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.

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.
