Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny, ceramicist 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.
Self-taught artist on the autism spectrum. I like monsters, insects, weird animals, body horror, horror comedy, Halloween decorations, fast food mascots, kitsch – and all of these creep into my work, but there’s really no overarching theme. I’m just frantically birthing as many clay monstrosities out into the world as I can until I’m no longer able to do so.
This blog has served as a record of my ceramic output since 2006.

"Bob" Update
"Bob" didn't make it through the bisque kiln entirely intact. The entire face became detached from the background and the lower part of the face became detached from the upper part. I glazed it anyway, hoping that the glaze will be able to hold the piece together. Sometimes that works. Note that the colors of the applied glaze do not accurately represent the colors after it goes through the glaze kiln.
