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.

The Hairy Reptile Snowman

View the finished Wampa Cup here.

Tonight I consulted my list of clay projects and selected "Wampa Devotion."  It was intended to be a small grotesque sculpture with a molded wampa face.  The wampa is of course the hairy reptile snowman that assaults Luke Skywalker in The Empire Strikes Back, thereby explaining the facial scars from Mark Hamill's car accident within the Star Wars universe.

Instead I ended up with a Wampa Chalice.  I considered adding the tusks, but decided it didn't need them.
