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.

Spiked Mask Devotion WIP

View the finished Spiked Mask Devotion here.

This object is about 6 inches tall.  It has a squash-like shape and a non-symmetrical pattern of spikes.  The entity inside the squash was made from a mold of a mask and the tentacles of some cephalopod monstrosity or Cryonex, the Elemental Prince of Evil Cold Creatures from the AD&D Fiend Folio.


Cryonex, Elemental Prince of Evil Cold Creatures.  I believe the illustrator is Emmanuel.  The AD&D Fiend Folio has long been a great inspiration to me.
