Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny, ceramicist 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.
Self-taught artist on the autism spectrum. I like monsters, insects, weird animals, body horror, horror comedy, Halloween decorations, fast food mascots, kitsch – and all of these creep into my work, but there’s really no overarching theme. I’m just frantically birthing as many clay monstrosities out into the world as I can until I’m no longer able to do so.
This blog has served as a record of my ceramic output since 2006.

Someone Else's Beholder
This beholder sculpture was on the shelf for the kids' class. Either some kid plays Dungeons & Dragons, or he copied my beholders. I'm guessing the latter. Either way, as stated in an earlier post, my beholders were accused of being cute and charming, and this beholder is vile and disgusting. I'm a little jealous. I might attempt a copy of the copy.
