Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny, ceramic artist and potter in Tucson, Arizona.
I work in the medium of stoneware clay and make hand-built pottery, sculpture, hamsas, ornaments, masks, and a variety of other forms.
Self-taught artist on the autism spectrum. I like monsters, insects, weird animals, body horror, horror comedy, Halloween decorations, fast food mascots, kitsch – and all of these creep into my work, but there’s really no overarching theme. I feel like I'm frantically birthing as many clay monstrosities out into the world as I can.

Ogrémoch 2 WIP
Last year, I made a Bust of Ogrémoch, the Prince of Evil Earth Elementals from Dungeons & Dragons. I made another one this week. I don't think it came out that nice. Also, the head is a large pinch pot and the clay is extremely thick. It would be a liability in the kiln and another large, ugly object to have around my shrinking living space. It's too late to reuse the clay, but I'm considering breaking it down and dumping it in the slip bucket.
