Bradley Clements is a doctoral candidate at the University of Toronto's Faculty of Information, specializing in cultural heritage studies. His present research, supervised by Cara Krmpotich, asks how museums and other heritage institutions can live up to responsibilities committed to in Great Lakes treaties between Indigenous and colonial nations. Bradley's prior research, supervised by Andrea N. Walsh at the University of Victoria, considered experiences of engagement between museum workers and Survivors of the Alberni Indian Residential School who have exhibited their repatriated childhood artworks.
Bradley is a Communications and Project Manager for GRASAC (Great Lakes Research Alliance for the Study of Aboriginal Arts and Cultures) and has worked in collections, museums, galleries, and independent curation for over eight years.
