Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny, potter and ceramic artist based in Tucson, Arizona. Self-taught and neurodivergent, he has worked in stoneware clay since 2004. He makes non-traditional forms 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.

The Emperor / Hot Dog Kid / Giant
This is the main figure for the Emperor Tarot card. It's not the skin tone I was hoping for, so I'm going to do it over and leave the clay unglazed.
This is a collage version I made several years ago. The head is from a hot dog advertisement.
