Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny,
ceramic artist 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.

I’m a self-taught autistic artist working in my medium for over twenty years. I like monsters, insects, weird animals, body horror, folk horror, horror comedy, horror in general, Halloween decorations, fast food mascots, kitsch – all of these creep into my work, but there’s really no overarching theme.

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.

Chamsas 72 and 73

These are two larger chamsas, also with oxide experiments.

This is Chamsa 72 with cobalt and Queens glaze.  I'm not sure if it's cobalt oxide or cobalt carbonate.  I think it gives a more consistent blue than the Floating Blue glaze.






This is Chamsa 73 with copper carbonate and Queens glaze.  I like the small streaks of bright green and would probably work better if it were applied more lightly.
