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.

Celestial Telescope Goldfish Chalice WIP
This is one of a series of four hand-built ceramics chalices. The fish image is inspired by a photo from the Life Nature Library volume titled The Fishes. It looked like it would collapse if I left it right side up, so I left it to dry upside down. It's very possible that the stem will collapse to one side.
