A Year and A Day

A Year and a Day is a solo exhibition by Aubrey Sloan, presented at Stark Street Studios & Gallery in Southeast Portland.

This exhibition explores working-class labor, motherhood, and the unseen labor that carries life through time. Centered around a 365-piece ceramic installation, the work reflects daily repetition, cyclical experience, and the rhythms of embodied time.

​

Additional works expand this framework across different scales — from a single moment of birth, to a year of daily labor, to the arc of a lifetime and beyond. Together, the exhibition considers how labor, care, and endurance shape both individual lives and collective experience.​
