Pages





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.

Wall Tower Pot











Free potato with purchase.

Pineapple Stamp Mug











Eye Cup With Tongues




Marijuilden Figure



I'm calling this a figure, but it's actually a doll.  Marijuilden is a portmanteau of marijuana and wilden.  Wildens are a  D&D race representing the forces of the natural world personified to fight off otherworldly horrors.

Myconid Figure



For the Temperance Tarot card.

Cauldron Chalice With Hairy Feet



For the Temperance Tarot card.

Smile



This was a leftover from the Awkward Cup.  I fired it because it's deliciously out of character for me and it broke.  I love how this event validates my shitty attitude.

Unholy Lamb Column



This thing has been floating around inside my head for four years.  It originally came from a creepy old-fashioned Valentine's Day card of a grotesque cartoon lamb and the words "Take a gambol with me."

Eryops Sculpture


One of the little animals for the Death Tarot card.

This is a series of wall hangings based on characters from the 1932 film Freaks. 

Seated Cthulhu Without Tentacles WIP



This was meant to be another Cthulhu idol, but I liked it better without the tentacles.
