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.

"Water Into Blood" Plague Finger Puppet

This is the first in a series of ceramic finger puppets representing the Ten Plagues of Egypt from the Book of Exodus.  It's the part in the Bible where Yahweh torments the people of Egypt with natural and unnatural horrors because of their leader's transgressions against His chosen people.  Worst fictional character ever.  Even more of a dick than Willy Loman.

The first plague concerns turning the waters of the Nile into blood,  killing the fish and stinking up the place.
 


Ten Plagues finger puppets are not my original idea.  They exist for the purpose of religious education and you can buy them online!
