Fantastical Worlds is a collaboration between Year 8 students at Royal Harbour Academy and Project Motorhouse. In May 2022, a group of 21 students took part in a series of imaginative & collaborative workshops with photographer Tim Topple, artist Christopher Tipping alongside Jo Mapp and Janet Fielding from Project Motorhouse. Taking inspiration from pop-up books, Alice in Wonderland and comic fantasy, the group experimented with surreal photography, performance, and collage to reimagine their town. Familiar and dreamlike, the artwork weaves together real-life stories and fantastical events to create an otherworldly vision of Ramsgate. 

Get inspired this autumn in our learning studio space, which is home to over 400 books for children and young people. There’ll be free creative workshops the Project Motorhouse Fantastical Worlds installation on display for you to explore. Find out more here.
