IRIS TERVO

Iris Tervo (b. 2004) is an artist and illustrator whose work is a vibrant tribute to the spirit of pop culture. Through stylized, figurative compositions, she captures the presence of contemporary musicians, athletes, and cultural icons, transforming familiar faces into modern mythologies. Iris’s practice is rooted in movement both physical and emotional. Music pulses through her headphones in the studio, informing the rhythm of her lines. With a graphic sensibility and a keen eye for pattern, she reimagines the spectacle of stardom as a new kind of iconography: expressive, electric, and unmistakably now. Tervo’s inspirations stretch beyond celebrity to encompass beloved albums and the places that have shaped her. Each piece becomes a visual mixtape and a celebration of influence, identity, and the joy of connection through culture.
