I thought the medium of glazed ceramic tiles gave these paintings a stunning, three dimensional presence. \u00a0Hearing Sungmin&#8217;s take on the piece was very interesting to me. He explained that Julia Jacquette wanted to convey the more realistic elements of female hands. In advertisements and media, female hands are often perfectly smooth, delicate, and free of scars or blemishes. Julia paints these hands in their realist forms, and choosing to convey the hands of famous female rockers is even more bad-ass in my opinion. There is something completely raw and powerful about these images, and it felt like a very positive expression of art, rather than some of the more critical and negative paintings later on in the exhibit.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/hamiltoncs.org\/lit220\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Screen-Shot-2017-04-10-at-8.11.07-PM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-754 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/hamiltoncs.org\/lit220\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Screen-Shot-2017-04-10-at-8.11.07-PM-300x120.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hamiltoncs.org\/lit220\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Screen-Shot-2017-04-10-at-8.11.07-PM-300x120.png 300w, https:\/\/hamiltoncs.org\/lit220\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Screen-Shot-2017-04-10-at-8.11.07-PM-768x308.png 768w, https:\/\/hamiltoncs.org\/lit220\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Screen-Shot-2017-04-10-at-8.11.07-PM.png 820w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When looking around the exhibit today, the piece that struck me the most was the first one we saw&#8211; &#8220;Hands (Women Rock Musicians)&#8221; series, 2016.
