Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny, ceramicist 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’m just frantically birthing as many clay monstrosities out into the world as I can until I’m no longer able to do so.
This blog has served as a record of my ceramic output since 2006.

Wall Cthulhoids
This is a set of four flat Cthulhu objects and one squid object to be hung on the wall. The Cthulhoids were made by cutting out symmetrical Cthulhu paper dolls and tracing them on clay.

March 2015 Bisque Firing
I had a mostly successful bisque firing. The important piece survived the trial by fire and so did most of the other objects. The nice symmetrical mugs are not my work.
This phallic monster sculpture shattered. Luckily it didn't take out any other pieces.
I kept the head.
