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.

Tucson Folk Festival



My studio missed the 4th Avenue Street Fair this year, so we tried a new venue, the Tucson Folk Festival. I was there for a few hours on Saturday morning and there was very little interest in what we were displaying, even the cheap, collectively thrown "chicken" pottery which usually sells fast. Some time between when I left and when the festival was finished on Sunday afternoon, I sold seven chamsas:





It comes out to $73 in sales.
