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.

Smilin' "Bob" Clock Fragments

These are fragments that manifested during the construction of the Smilin' "Bob" clock pieces.

This one is my favorite. The clay stuck to the mold. The face was distorted, so I threw it on the floor, and yet somehow the face survived. It's almost a fucking Christmas miracle!
