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.

Quint Devotion
The Quint Devotion utilizes arms from a set of doll molds and a face from a Disney-branded doll (although I don't recognize the character) with a hard face perfect for mold making, as opposed to those annoying Barbies with their grotesque, squishy faces. I made five molds of varying quality from the doll's face and this devotion utilizes all five.
