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.

Tarot Devil

This is a ceramic wall mask in the shape of the Devil from the Rider-Waite Tarot deck.  He's called "The Devil" in keeping with the Judeo-Christian flavor of the deck, but it's clearly the wicked nature spirit Pan under whatever name you choose to call him.
