Is light invisible or visible?

The human eye can only see visible light, but there are many other colors that are invisible to the naked eye. There is a red light on one end of the spectrum that is too bright for humans to see.

Why pink is not a color?

Light consists of electromagnetic waves, and colour depends on the wavelength. If colours were simply a naming scheme for wavelengths then pink is not one, because it is made up of more than one wavelength (it's actually a mix of red and purple light).
