AN ARTIST has left her fans baffled after she seemingly showed off the ‘hole’ in her hand, and no one can work out what’s going on.

TikTok user Adeline shared a video of her ‘repairing the hole’, appearing to stuff it with rice, cover it with peanut butter and even filling it with sushi.

The ‘hole’ itself is incredibly convincing, even showing the space underneath it, be it a table, a jigsaw puzzle or a book.

The end clip sees her appearing to push her own finger through the ‘hole’ leaving viewers utterly baffled.

The clip has since amassed almost 16 million views as followers try to figure out what’s going on.

Commenting on the snap one wrote: “ I THOUGHT IT WAS REAL AT FIRST AND IT SCARED ME.”

“That’s not possible,” said another, while a third added, “How did you do this???”

The reality is that the hole is in fact one of Adeline’s amazingly realistic illustrations, and this is not the first one to fool the web.

Previously she shared a video showing what appears to be a drawing of a corridor – but as Adeline moves the camera around, it looks like the drawing is sinking into the table below it.

It appears as though the art-lover has managed to create a magical 3D hallway going through the surface below – and no one had any idea how it was possible.

At the end of the video, however, Adeline showed that – rather than the drawing sinking into the table below, it was actually a 3D structure coming out of the table. 

She said this phenomenon is called “reverse perspective”.

She explained: “I don’t know about you, but I’m fascinated by optical illusions. Today I was playing with something called reverse perspective and I made a little art gallery.”

Even after Adeline revealed the illusion, commenters were still confused.

“My brain is switching from seeing the illusion to breaking it every two seconds, it’s making me kinda dizzy”, wrote one.

“I keep seeing it and unseeing it”, another added.
