Ilhas Studio — FUSO + FUSO INSULAR 2025
FUSO 2025 marked the fourth edition of the festival with a graphic identity developed by ilhas studio.
As Lisbon’s oldest video art festival, FUSO is a bastion in promoting video art as an artistic expression. Featuring a competitive session where, every year, new names in international video art are revealed, FUSO has taken on the mission of raising awareness of the history of this field. Thus, every year there is a section of the festival dedicated to the work of a historical artist. This existence between past and future is fundamental whenever we think about the image of FUSO (a project we have been designing since 2022). The 2025 edition saw a refresh of the graphic image with the introduction of a new serif typeface that was elongated and worked on to acquire a particular and unique look that contrasts with the grotesk typeface used in the logo. In addition, for the 2025 edition, we took inspiration from the glitches and intermissions that populate the imagination of the early digital age.
About FUSO:
Founded in 2009, FUSO is Lisbon’s only open-air video art festival, presented in distinctive locations such as gardens and museum cloisters. With free admission, the festival brings together artists, curators, institutions, and the general public engaged in moving-image practices.
Launched in 2019, FUSO INSULAR extends the festival’s mission to the Azores, addressing a gap in the region’s artistic landscape by fostering knowledge, training, and critical engagement with moving-image art.
FUSO uses a white background in its communication materials, while FUSO INSULAR is distinguished by a vibrant pink.
