"this is not a pepe" is an unoriginal spin on surrealist René Magritte's renowned "The Treachery of Images." It delves into the age-old dilemma of art representation where what we see is merely an interpretation of an object, and not the object itself.
The same can be said for NFTs. Digital assets challenge the traditional notion of ownership and value, just like "this is not a pepe" challenges our perception of 'art.' NFTs are not the JPEGs themselves, but rather a representation of it - a testament to the eternal treachery of images.
