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.

Devil Girl

This is a flat clay object inspired by a fiberglass and silicone sculpture by Colin Christian.

Without the glare, but a little blurry...




Colin Christian's original. I like the contours of the face, the depth of the eyes, the texture of the latex on the head. According to his website, Colin Christian aims for true cartoon realism and I think I've flattened it by a few orders of magnitude.
