Currently he holds the position of Associate Curator at the <a href=\"https:\/\/broadmuseum.msu.edu\/\">Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University (MSU Broad)<\/a>. His present research and curatorial interests focus on the intersection of social, racial, and environmental justice, as well as the relationship between art, geopolitics, and scientific inquiry. Most recently at the MSU Broad, Bridges curated the major exhibitions <a href=\"https:\/\/broadmuseum.msu.edu\/exhibitions\/katrin-sigurdardottir\"><em>Katr\u00edn Sigur\u00f0ard\u00f3ttir<\/em> (2019\u201320)<\/a> and <em>Oscar Tuazon: Water School<\/em> (2019), and co-curated the first two-person exhibition of the work of Mike Kelley and Jim Shaw, titled <em>Michigan Stories<\/em> (2017\u201318). Other notable projects include <em>Spirit Molecule<\/em> (2019), a highly experimental project initiated by artists Heather Dewey-Hagborg and Phillip Andrew Lewis to develop a moss garden of genetic memorials; and Beyond<em> Streaming: A Sound Mural for Flint<\/em>, a residency project for which artist Jan Tichy worked with Lansing and Flint-area community members in response to the Flint water crisis. His essays and articles have been published in numerous journals and magazines, including <em>Seismopolite<\/em>, <em>Art &amp; the Public Sphere<\/em>, <em>Dispatch<\/em>, <em>Live Arts Almanac<\/em>, and <em>Art &amp; Education Papers<\/em>, as well as exhibition catalogues and other online and print media. In 2017 he was named a curatorial fellow at the FACE Foundation.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10039\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10039\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10039 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/MSU-Broad-2017-%C2%A9-MSU-Broad-web.jpg?resize=640%2C380&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/MSU-Broad-2017-%C2%A9-MSU-Broad-web.jpg?resize=1024%2C608&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/MSU-Broad-2017-%C2%A9-MSU-Broad-web.jpg?resize=300%2C178&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/MSU-Broad-2017-%C2%A9-MSU-Broad-web.jpg?resize=768%2C456&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/MSU-Broad-2017-%C2%A9-MSU-Broad-web.jpg?resize=696%2C413&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/MSU-Broad-2017-%C2%A9-MSU-Broad-web.jpg?resize=1068%2C634&amp;ssl=1 1068w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/MSU-Broad-2017-%C2%A9-MSU-Broad-web.jpg?resize=707%2C420&amp;ssl=1 707w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/MSU-Broad-2017-%C2%A9-MSU-Broad-web.jpg?w=1926&amp;ssl=1 1926w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/MSU-Broad-2017-%C2%A9-MSU-Broad-web.jpg?w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10039\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University, photo Courtesy MSU Broad<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10040\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10040\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10040 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_1763.jpg?resize=640%2C427&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_1763.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_1763.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_1763.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_1763.jpg?resize=696%2C464&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_1763.jpg?resize=1068%2C712&amp;ssl=1 1068w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_1763.jpg?resize=630%2C420&amp;ssl=1 630w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_1763.jpg?w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_1763.jpg?w=2088&amp;ssl=1 2088w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10040\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Katr\u00edn Sigur\u00f0ard\u00f3ttir installation view at the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University, 2019.
