Psychrolutes marcidus, the real blobfish: much blobbier and much more horizontal.
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.

Blobfish Tiki Mug
This is third in a series of four animal tiki mugs. I don't think it successfully captures the very human facial features of the blobfish, . Maybe if you took a blobfish and squished it into a column and gave it satanic eyes it would look like this.
