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.

I’m a self-taught autistic artist working in my medium for over twenty years. I like monsters, insects, weird animals, body horror, folk horror, horror comedy, horror in general, Halloween decorations, fast food mascots, kitsch – all of these creep into my work, but there’s really no overarching theme.

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.

Formless Spawn #2

This is old work from about 2007.  I made a series of sculptures representing Formless Spawn, an entity from the Cthulhu Mythos, although not one invented by Lovecraft.  The Formless Spawn were invented by Clark Ashton Smith.  They were designated as the servitors of the Old One Tsathoggua.

I posted about them a few years ago, but I'm listing one of them on Etsy and I wanted to update the photography.
