Banksy returns to the London Underground in his latest stunt with a piece encouraging everyone to wear a face mask. The elusive artist took to instagram to share a video of the process. In the video, a man, believed to be Banksy, is disguised as a professional TFL cleaner - even equipped with a pressure sprayer! He can be seen ordering passengers away as he gets to work, not disinfecting the train but stencilling rats around the carriage. The work - called 'If You Don't Mask, You Don't Get', features a number of rats wearing face masks or using them as parachutes, sneezing and spraying anti-bacterial gel across the windows and walls of the moving train.
At the end of the video, the words "I get lockdown" appear on the side of a station wall, followed by "but I get up again" on the closing train doors- a play on words on the Chumbawamba hitsong which plays at the end.
