Does color exist?

Let me explain an abstract thought I was having. I used to wonder does everyone see the same color. Does "green" look the same to me as it does to other people. Then I wanted to expand on this, does color exist at all? Is colored light bouncing off everything within space or is color just how our brains process wavelengths of light as they enter our retina. Wavelengths within our range of sight is called visible light but is that just human bias?

Is visible light "visible" or is it just as present as all other forms of electro-magnetic radiation and our brains just comprehend it as color?
