INVERNO

INVERNO is a contemporary artist collective known for their enigmatic, atmospheric works that explore themes of transition, memory, and the interplay between light and shadow. Based in Lisbon, Portugal, INVERNO was founded in 2018 by a pair of multidisciplinary artists with backgrounds in visual art, music, and design. Their practice spans painting, installation, sound art, and digital media, creating immersive environments that evoke sensations of nostalgia, isolation, and reverence for impermanence.

Inspired by the melancholic beauty of winter landscapes—'inverno' meaning 'winter' in Portuguese—the collective’s work often juxtaposes stark, minimalist forms with intricate textures and subtle gradients of color. INVERNO’s pieces invite viewers to contemplate the passage of time and the quiet poetry present in stillness and absence. Their exhibitions have been featured in galleries and art fairs across Europe, and their innovative use of sound and light has established them as rising voices within the new European avant-garde.
