Psychrolutes marcidus, the real blobfish: much blobbier and much more horizontal.
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. Want to wade through two decades of my neurodivergent art experiments, including all the failures? You're in the right place!

Blobfish Tiki Mug
This is third in a series of four animal tiki mugs. I don't think it successfully captures the very human facial features of the blobfish, . Maybe if you took a blobfish and squished it into a column and gave it satanic eyes it would look like this.
