There was still time and clay left so I also made a Grell Cup, a member of the dysfunctional pottery line.
The present cast of weird clay objects on my shelf:
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.

Tonight at the Studio
Tonight I went to the studio with no clear concept of what I wanted to make. I found the object on the right in the photo below on someone else's shelf and decided to make a copy of it. It looks somewhat like an apple with legs and a face or possibly a crude depiction of a woman's torso with a stem instead of a head.
There was still time and clay left so I also made a Grell Cup, a member of the dysfunctional pottery line.
