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.

Stormtrooper Menorah 2
I was hoping this would come out better than it did. It has some large cracks. I'm going to try to add some more glaze and have it glaze fired again. It won't fix the cracks, but it might help hide them by making the clay inside the cracks the same color as the rest of the menorah.
