Water bowl for my cat. It fell a short distance while I was adding Calvin's face and it's a little lumpy.

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.

Poodle Moth Tiki Mug
This is the second in a series of four tiki mugs with carved images of interesting animal life forms. This is the Venezuelan poodle moth (Artace sp.).

Jabba's Palace Mobile Pieces WIP
These are flat clay interpretations of various characters from my second-favorite Star Wars scene, Jabba the Hutt's palace. I think I made Salacious B. Crumb's mouth too wide. Now my artistic vision is ruined. They're meant to be hung as a vertical mobile.

Furious Ape Phallic Monster
I made a press mold from the face of a massive gorilla action figure years ago and it's still serving me well.
Six-Legged Phallic Monster
I'm not happy with how the glaze came out on this one. I was hoping for a matte gray with some green tones and it came out an annoying glossy brown. I attempted to add a coat of green glaze and refire, but it had no effect.

Mos Eisley Mobile Pieces WIP
These are primitive flat clay interpretations of characters from Mos Eisley Cantina in A New Hope. They're meant to be hung as a vertical mobile structure.
Mmm, hopefully they'll look better when glazed.
