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.

Monster Baby 1 WIP

Last weekend was the All Souls Procession in Tucson.  I went to the procession, but it was very crowded and I couldn't find a comfortable place to stand.  I found one area where I could stand a little bit back from the crowd but then people kept filling in the space in front of me and I kept having to move further back.  Finally I gave up and went home.

I've been thinking of participating in the procession.  My idea is to make a clay monster baby and push it in a stroller or carriage.  I'm planning on wearing a black shroud that completely covers my face.  I want to use some kind of light inside the baby's head and body.

This is my first attempt at the monster baby.
