We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Adriel Hortiales. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Adriel below.

Alright, Adriel thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Can you tell us about a time that your work has been misunderstood? Why do you think it happened and did any interesting insights emerge from the experience?

Absolutely, there was a time when my work was misunderstood. I was part of a team working on a major project, and I was responsible for data analysis. Unfortunately, due to a miscommunication, my findings were interpreted incorrectly by the project manager. They believed the data suggested a different trend than what I had actually identified. This led to a series of decisions that were not aligned with the true insights of the data.

When I realized the misunderstanding, I scheduled a meeting to clarify my analysis and presented the data again, ensuring that my explanations were clear and backed up by visual aids. This experience taught me the importance of clear communication and the need to verify that everyone is on the same page. It also highlighted the value of follow-up meetings to ensure that key information is accurately understood by all stakeholders.

In my perspective, society can best support artists, creatives, and a thriving creative ecosystem by fostering a culture that values and respects the arts. This can be achieved through increased funding for arts programs, providing more opportunities for artists to showcase their work, and promoting art education in schools. Additionally, creating affordable spaces for artists to work and collaborate, as well as offering grants and residencies, can help sustain a vibrant creative community. Encouraging diversity and inclusion within the arts sector is also crucial to ensure that all voices are represented and supported. By recognizing the importance of art and creativity in society, we can cultivate a more supportive environment for artists to thrive and contribute their unique perspectives.
