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.

Worm Giraluna

This is a piece from 2007 which I've posted about before.  Here it is again with some better (or at least larger) photos.  The giraluna is a spectral plant entity from Leo Lionni's classic alternate universe  textbook Parallel Botany.  This interpretation of it used a plastic worm mold which I wish I still had.
