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.

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.
