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.

The Holes Are to Keep It From Exploding
This is a new shroom sculpture using a mold made from the grell toy. I can't tell if the cap is uneven or just looks that way because of the shadows. I'm also a little disappointed that it didn't come out like my other grell shroom (actually Grell Shroom 2) which was destroyed when a shelf collapsed in June.
