Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny,
potter and ceramic artist based in Tucson, Arizona. Self-taught and neurodivergent, he has worked in the medium of stoneware clay for 21 years, developing a practice rooted in literal construction and obsessive repetition. He makes non-traditional ceramics in a medium built on tradition, exploring the overlap between wonder and revulsion. Subject matter includes sympathetic monsters, insects, opossums, fast food mascots, and Halloween kitsch.

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.

Asparagus Dentata

I was thinking about making a vegan alphabet book using flat (and possibly some sculpted) cartoonish ceramic pieces.

I asked for help naming the asparagus on various websites.  The winner is definitely "Asparagus Dentata" because Anything Dentata is funny.  My second choice would have been "The Artist Formerly known as Stalk of Asparagus."

Here's the complete list of suggestions:
