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.

Wall Cthulhu WIPs

Finished Wall Cthulhoids

These are Cthulhu faces to be hung on the wall.  I don't usually take before pictures of this kind of stuff, but they have a lot of dangly bits and may not survive, so I wanted to have them documented.

Chamsa Pot WIP

Finished Chamsa Pot

When I sell my tiny chamsas at craft fairs, I've been putting them in a plastic container, but I think they would look better in something made of clay.  This is a small, heavy coil pot with chamsas on the outside.

Primitive Phallic Object WIP

This one didn't survive the firing process.  Here are the remains.

I'm starting 2015 with a very primitive phallic monster.  This one looks more like a penis cat than a penis dog.  The top part comes off to reveal a secret compartment.
