Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny,
potter and ceramic artist based in Tucson, Arizona. Self-taught and neurodivergent, he has worked in the medium of stoneware clay for 21 years, developing a practice rooted in literal construction and obsessive repetition. He makes non-traditional ceramics in a medium built on tradition, exploring the overlap between wonder and revulsion. Subject matter includes sympathetic monsters, insects, opossums, fast food mascots, and Halloween kitsch.

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.

Furious Ape Stars







A recent thrift store shopping trip yielded this delightful fellow, a cybernetic ape with the characters "CY-3" on the arm. It is apparently Cy-Gor, a character from the Spawn comics.









One press mold of its face later, I produced these three Furious Ape Stars.
