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.

Eye Cups With Tears WIP

I'm finally finished glazing and back to making new things.  Eye Cup #47 came out slightly irregular, but it's hard to tell unless viewed from above.


Finished Eye Cup #48

Eye Cup #48 has the same design but it's slightly closer to being circular.

Eye Cup #45 With Three Large Eyes

This is the last of this batch of mugs.  It's divided into three sections of plum/deep red, pussywillow/indigo, and emerald green glazes and the irises of the eyes have the same three glazes.

Phallic Monster #6

This is a primitive sculpture of a creature with a penis for its head and tail.  The Etruscan bronze sculpture it's modeled after also has an erection where you would expect to find one, but this one is in a crouching position and I couldn't fit it in.  The top comes off to reveal a secret compartment.




Eye Cup #46 With 30 Small Eyes

This is a slab mug with 30 small eyes embedded in the surface.  They're the same small eyes I use to make the small chamsas.

Eye Cup #44 With Ten Eyes

This is a copy of Eye Cup #36.  It has three sections of overlapping glazes and ten eyes in the same three colors (purple, emerald green, and plum/deep red).  Maybe it will sell and that's obviously all that matters.
