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 since 2004, 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.

Moonbeast Sculpture WIP

I got this statue at a dollar store.  I'm not sure if it's meant to be a real animal or an imaginary one.  It looks a little like a tarsier.

Milo's House Prototype

The six-year old nephew asked for a house with a list of specifications including windows, people outside, a chimney, a door, an upstairs, twisty stairs, three floors, a basement, people separate from the house, and a festival with a globe, cube, and heart.  This is a prototype.  It doesn't have all the specifications.  The outside walls fit over the inside floor plan.  It has a bathtub, sofa, TV, and attic, but no basement, festival, or people.
