Mr Brainwash Brings Disney to Life in London with “Dreams Come True” Trail
If you’re in London this December, follow the city-wide trail to experience Disney icons through the unique vision of Mr Brainwash.
From 5 to 7 December, London will host Dreams Come True — a city-wide trail that turns the familiar streets of the capital into a stage for Mr Brainwash’s new Disney collaboration, presented by Clarendon Fine Art.
The trail challenges participants to track down three hidden installations: Mr Brainwash’s fedora in Leake Street Graffiti Tunnels, Minnie Mouse’s bow at South Bank Skate Park, and Mickey Mouse’s ears at the Mouse Trap, St Martin’s Lane Theatre. Those who reach the final bonus stop at Clarendon Fine Art’s Mayfair gallery are entered into a draw for a further limited-edition print. Prizes also include an original Sky Full of Promise personalised by Mr Brainwash and three additional limited editions from the collection.
“This collection is more than art; it’s history in the making,” says Mr Brainwash, the artist born Thierry Guetta. “To blend the timeless wonder of Disney with my artistic universe is a dream realised. Together, we are creating something unforgettable in a space that will never exist in the same way again.”
Helen Swaby, CEO of Clarendon Fine Art, adds, “The meeting of Disney’s timeless imagination and Mr Brainwash’s fearless creativity marks the beginning of a new creative era — defined by a body of work that feels both nostalgic and completely new. The collaboration is pure alchemy!”
The collection itself features original canvases, sculptures, and 14 limited-edition silkscreen prints — a collision of pop-art energy and classic Disney imagery. On the streets of London, the trail offers selfie opportunities with the fedora, bow, and ears, inviting visitors to engage directly with the artworks while following the clues.
The Dreams Come True trail launches at 9am on 5 December and runs until 7pm on 7 December, with clues released via Mr Brainwash and Clarendon Fine Art social channels on 4 December.
