The animated film is being commemorated through a variety of quirky [pixel art sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-de-guzman-1) situated in some of the most unexpected locations. Different living things and objects that are typically seen on the streets are recreated into sculpture form. Pigeons, cabs and even a tree give off the appearance as if the streets of London are slowly turning into the gaming reality world that the movie is based off of. Disney's film production sculptor Aden Hynes was the person behind these unexpected yet impressive sculptures. Even if you aren't a fan of the Disney franchise, the 8-bit Lane is still a very interesting installation to check out. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.8/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 18% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Media](https://www.trendhunter.com/media) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Pixelated Art Installations:** Opportunities for artists and marketers to create unique and eye-catching installations through the use of pixel art. - **Branded Street Art:** Incorporating street art into advertising campaigns as a way to create buzz and connect with audiences in a memorable way. - **Crossover Art:** Collaborations between artists and media/entertainment brands to create unique installations that connect with both art lovers and fans of the brand. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Art and Design:** Creating new opportunities for artists to experiment with new forms and mediums in their work. - **Marketing and Advertising:** Using street art as a way to engage with audiences in a unique and memorable way. - **Media and Entertainment:** Partnering with artists to create immersive experiences for fans and to promote upcoming releases in a creative way. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Video Game-Themed Pixel Paintings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixel-art-collection.md) - [Global Pixel Canvas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wplace.md) - [Animation-Inspired Themed Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixar-place-hotel.md) - [Pixel-Style Role-Play Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-4.md) - [Cubic Cookie Movie Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oreo-x-a-minecraft-movie-campaign.md) - [Playful Billboard Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dreamies-treats.md) - [Glowing Movie Campaign Murals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-mural.md) - [Spiky Inflatable Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inflatable-sculptures1.md) - [Distorted Furniture Street Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/first-kiss-at-last-light.md)
