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.

Finished Rhino Wraith

I bought some African mammal toys at a thrift store a few years ago and I've been looking for an excuse to use them.  That's all this is: an excuse to model a rhinoceros head.  I'm calling it a wraith because it has a flattened, sheet-like, flying-squirrel-like body and cylindrical protrusions suggesting ribs.












The rhinoceros toy used as a model:
