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.

Skull Face Spiky Pot

This is a slab pot with 57 spikes.  I've used the skull face before in this clay mask.




This is a video of each step in the process of making this pot, with music by The Orb, The Soggy Bottom Boys, Jello Biafra, and 10,000 Maniacs.  I like documenting the process, but from now on I'm going to turn the pot a little faster.
