This pot was constructed by making coils of clay, flattening them, and attaching them around a base with slip. The result is a very sturdy pot, but the thickness is obviously not uniform. I've switched to a slab method for all future pots.
Aberrant Ceramics is the ceramic artwork of Aaron Nosheny. I work in the medium of stoneware clay and make hand-built pottery, primitive sculpture, hamsas, and a variety of other forms. My work celebrates and pushes the plasticity of the medium. The content of the work follows an inner landscape of biological obsessions, psychic damage, and bouncy cartoon animals.

Ten-Eyed Pot
This is a hand-built slab/coil pot with ten large molded eyes that wrap around the pot in a linear pattern.
