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.

Black and White Column

This is a column sculpture with a primitive sculpted face.











Tardigrade 18 WIP

This is the first of a new series of tardigrades.  This one has big feet.  The facial features are not actually facial features, but they're based on an electron microscope image of a tardigrade that appears to have facial features.

Embryo Pot

This is a slab pot with the facial features of a 5-week-old human embryo.  I also made a mug with the same design.  Yes, it looks like a penis, but so did your head when you were a 5-week-old embryo.
