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.

Tardigrade 18 WIP
This is the first of a new series of tardigrades. This one has big feet. The facial features are not actually facial features, but they're based on an electron microscope image of a tardigrade that appears to have facial features.

Embryo Pot
This is a slab pot with the facial features of a 5-week-old human embryo. I also made a mug with the same design. Yes, it looks like a penis, but so did your head when you were a 5-week-old embryo.
