What is the graphic design term using for this (mean this color splashes)?
And in a nutshell, is there a way to draw scenes like this in PS or AI?
Thanks in advance.

Surely S. Brakhage's work qualifies... this makes me think of a "typical" frame of one of his movies.– user29318Oct 8, 2014 at 23:13

You can find all sorts of Photoshop Paint Brushes of varying qualities that can produce this. Look for some high resolution paint textures and paint brushes. They'll be .abr format if they're actual brushes.

Then its just playing with them. Layer them and adjust the colors, curves, opacity and such.
I can't find a uniformly used term, but the closest term I can find is "fluid art", or seemingly interchangeable term "liquid art".
The same term seems to be used across photos, paintings, 3D renderings, and videos.

Marbling
The base is marbling, from there the different options like paint marbling, color marbling, liquid marbling and the different reproduction techniques, some of them appear as marble art.
The paper marbling is a very old technique whose origin is similar to the photo of the question and the creation process is similar to the one reproduced in this tutorial from forthemakers.com
There are several tutorials on the internet using the Twirl Brush in Illustrator or the Liquify Effect in Photoshop. Just search for Illustrator marbling or Photoshop Marbling.
