She is well known for her anachronisms and her strong Renaissance influence. The Wall Street International wrote, "Romina"s photography provokes and challenges us to confront things which may seem uncomfortable however manages to provide a reassuring quality. This juxtaposition between comfort and uncomfortable is a powerful one which resonates throughout her practice." Romina Ressia was born on March 11, 1981, in Azul (Buenos Aires province), Argentina.
However, she would later abandon those professions to devote herself to Photography.
She studied Photography, Art Direction and Scenery at several institutions, including the Teatro Colon. She started in fashion photography but was gradually moving to Fine Arts, venturing, beyond Photography, in Mixed Media.

"Sus imágenes se parecen más a un cuadro del Renacimiento que a una foto moderna y ahí radica su belleza.
