I also think that `new `(4 chars, if we count the blank space) is short
enough.
But a JS-like syntax that's already known for representing objects could be
used.
I'm sympathetic to something like this (changing the OP examples):

class A {
     public function b() {
          echo "I'm B";
     }
 }

 A::{}->b();


class Foo {
    public function __construct(
        public string $name
    ) {}
}

class Bar {
   public function __construct(
        public Foo $foo
   ) {}
}

 $bar =3D Bar::{ Foo::{ "I'm foo in bar" } };
 echo $bar->foo->name;
