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.

Red Cat in the Pot
I was thinking this could be used as a soup bowl, but a friend who is a lifelong kitchenware enthusiast didn't think so. It's a slab bowl with a big, primitive cat head sculpture on the inside.

Giraffe Pendants
This was a fun commission. Most of my giraffes end up as smiling giraffes: (Giraffe Column, Giraffe Pot, Giraffe-Hydra-Tree, Giraffe Lich, Giraffe Cup). I made 14 and 12 survived, a few with missing legs.

Babadook Sculpture
This is a sculptural interpretation of the monster from The Babadook. I was expecting the manganese oxide to come out black instead of brown. This is one of my very favorite horror films. Great directing, great acting (especially from the child star), amazing art department. The film itself is spooky, but the pop-up book that serves to let an evil spirit access to the house is terrifying. This is based on an illustration from the book.
The image from the film and the pop-up book:

Practice Skulls 2
I needed some skulls for a pottery project and these were used as
practice. They're obviously very distorted and the ones that finally
made it onto the pot (which I just glazed this morning) are also very
distorted.
