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.

"Bob" Hate Plaque

The kilns were not kind to the image of J.R. "Bob" Dobbs. The face cracked below the nose and the whole face became detached from the background in the bisque kiln. I used glaze to hold it in place, but the big flat piece in the back cracked in the glaze kiln. It still came out in one piece.
