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.

The Problem of Tardigrade Feet

Finished version of Tardigrade #8

I've been intending to address the problem of tardigrade feet.  On this tardigrade sculpture, there is a base to support the long claws.  It still doesn't show the curvature of the claws.  I've also taken some liberties with the segmentation of the head.
