Finished Hallucigenia Sculpture
I've tried to make hallucigenia in its correct configuration with the spines on top and the tentacles on the bottom before, but it didn't work out, so I always defaulted to the older, incorrect configuration with the tentacles on top and the spines on the bottom. This is a new attempt at a more anatomically correct hallucgenia, although I'm still not sure about its front-to-back orientation. I'm also not sure about the shape of the head. The image I used as a source featured an ass-shaped head.

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.
