Alice Romanov is a photographer and writer based in Philadelphia making work about her Russian-Ukrainian background, childhood memories, and passed-down stories.

She integrates text in her photography, first-person essays, and poems to draw connections to her experiences, where reflections of an uncertain future exist. She received her B.F.A from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design. In 2023, she received the Gertrude Kasebier Travel Grant Award from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design to photograph in Poland and other European countries while exploring similar landscapes and cultural complexities to that of her own.
