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.

The Applepussy Monstrosity

I have no idea what this is. It looks like a veiny apple with monstrous tits, lasciviously splayed legs, and a sphincter-like orifice in the front.









The Applepussy Monstrosity is based on a child's clay sculpture that I found on someone else's shelf on a night that I didn't have any brilliant ideas of my own. Here are the two objects side by side.









The view from above: it looks like it should be smokeable, and yet it's not.
