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.
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 feel like I'm frantically birthing as many clay monstrosities out into the world as I can.

Skull Shroom 3
This is my third skull shroom. It's also the largest: the mushroom cap has a diameter of 9 inches. There are 87 pieces attached to it, mostly molds of Halloween decorations. This one was made as a commission. I would say I'm reluctant to give it up, but I don't really have room for it.
