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.

So Like a Fish...
After the explosion in the kiln, I feel compelled to take a picture of each piece I make just in case it doesn't survive. This is a replacement for the aboleth that blew up. The problem is that I don't know for sure if there are any lethal air bubbles lurking somewhere. This one could also explode and destroy my other pieces and other people's pots in the process. So like a fish to come in and start oozing all over the place.
