Picture this; you're walking down the street when you see a silver-wrapped car and a person in a bright purple dress and an abnormally large wig. What's the first thing you do? Make a TikTok about it, of course. This fever-dream-esque scenario was captured by TikToker itsreefa, and has been inspiring artists all over the world ever since. 

The video (see below) features a young man stumbling upon an art shoot to which he asks, "what's this?". The eclectically-dressed subject of the video then answers, "an art project," to which he responds "Okay, I like it. Picasso. Dat way". Now artists have been using the TikTok sound to promote their art. If you'd like to shoot your own TikToks but don't know where to start, then make sure you check out our guide on how to edit a video on TikTok
