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.

Seated Cthulhu WIP

Finished version of Seated Cthulhu 1

I received a commission for a seated Cthulhu sculpture with a fairly low budgetary restriction.  This is what I produced last night.  It was a lot of work and the glazing is also likely to be very time-consuming because of all the eyes.  I don't know if I feel right about selling this one for $20, so I might try a simpler version tonight.
