The first plague concerns turning the waters of the Nile into blood, killing the fish and stinking up the place.
Ten Plagues finger puppets are not my original idea. They exist for the purpose of religious education and you can buy them online!
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.

"Water Into Blood" Plague Finger Puppet
This is the first in a series of ceramic finger puppets representing the Ten Plagues of Egypt from the Book of Exodus. It's the part in the Bible where Yahweh torments the people of Egypt with natural and unnatural horrors because of their leader's transgressions against His chosen people. Worst fictional character ever. Even more of a dick than Willy Loman.
