Drawing inspiration from traditional catholic art, artist Ghandiii, creates a new age experience on an aged and venerated art style in his exhibition, The Most High. He makes many juxtapositions and pushes the envelope of scaredness in his art, challenging viewers to think beyond the religious and worldly pretenses to truly find their values; or, at the very least question why their values are as they are. The New York born artist also pays respect to the melting pot of culture he grew up in, by honoring cultures outside of his own in his art. The exhibition was open October 1, 2022 - October 31, 2022, and people were able to view and purchase the art. Ghandiii was also present during the opening, so viewers were able to discuss their thoughts with him.

The painting named Madonna Raised A Prophet is a great piece to highlights the themes of The Most High Exhibition. In it Jesus has a third eye and Mary is holding an iPhone in her hand. Here we see those traditional catholic art forms and the juxtaposition of modernity. This piece upholds the origins of art by asking many questions, but most importantly starting many discussions.
