Here is the original object.
Someone insinuated that these objects were anomalously benign for me. I don't know whether to feel insulted or pleased, but I don't think this figure looks benign at all. Religious raptures creep me out.
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.

These are clay objects made with a mold of a caroler candle holder object purchased at a thrift store.
Here is the original object.
Someone insinuated that these objects were anomalously benign for me. I don't know whether to feel insulted or pleased, but I don't think this figure looks benign at all. Religious raptures creep me out.
