Art Talk | "To make my past beautiful." - Swedish Artist, Alice Herbst
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 มิ.ย. 2024
- I met this beautiful artist, Alice Herbst, in Stockholm, Sweden this winter.
She was one of the girls who tried to find herself as a teenager. I am sure we all do, did, and done.
She plays and creates many different personas for her painting and recreates the characters by painting on canvas.
I also always find it hard to define myself as one person or personality; I embraced her perspective and point of view this time and was greatly inspired by her story.
If there is someone to try to find your soul and combine it with one, you might get some idea through her story.
I hope this interview will help you to find the answer for yourself.
Enjoy, and Happy holidays to you and your families. May the season be one of joy, celebration, and warmth and the year to come filled with health and new blessings.

"Making my past more beautiful." brought me to tears
Yeah, it was incredibly touching during the interview, I got teary-eyed too. 🥲 You really watched the video until the end! It was the last line! Thank you for sticking around till the end!😆
Her own art heals her. That’s beautiful 💜
Indeed, it's truly enchanting when an artist finds solace and healing in their own creations. It adds a profound dimension of beauty to the artwork! 💜
Beautiful
Her creations, vision and her story plus her own style, personality and humour…all so wonderful to listen to. A fascinating artist!
Such a lovely person💕
I'm sincerely impressed-fantastic job!
I just love her attitude and spirit. Her Inner beauty shines brightly. The outer beauty takes a backseat
Interesting story, and a very unusual multimedia approach to creating references, including using random 2D ephemerae as Easter eggs in different ways from one piece to the next. Ms. Herbst' series "The Whisper Game" reminds me a bit of the concept from Normal Rockwell's "Chain of Gossip" painting. It's also cool that after a bad experience in the modelling profession, that as her own model and as the artist, Ms. Herbst now controls what her image is used to say.
Interesting! Thank you for sharing your insight.👍
She's so down to earth. I appreciate that she didnt use "artist jargon" to explain her work and her process. Very unique work, really good too!
It's refreshing to hear that you appreciated her down-to-earth approach in explaining her work and process. Her unique style and clarity definitely make her work stand out. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Alice is very pretty but also a beautiful person. And such an inspiring story she has... I am proud of women who go out and tell their stories, it empowers us all. I loved her art, it's been a long time since I saw sth really different and interesting; it is very personal, but not private. I loved that. Thank you for introducing her to us!
Thank you so much for your wonderful comment! I completely agree-sharing stories like Alice's can indeed empower us all. I'm grateful for your support and that you took the time to watch the artist interview. Thanks again for being a part of our community🥰

lovely, alice! i've been a fan for so so many years.. you are truly remarkable!
super cool, i love the process, the results and her world
This is so inspiring. I love alice so much, as an artist and as a person, been fan of hers for 4 years. Looking back at the progress she made and all the inspirational stuff she created is so cozy and warming for me 🥰
Yes, through this interview, we all became a fan of hers, either🤍 she has such an inspiring perspective and ideas💕 we are glad to share her story with you all✨
An amazing artist ❤wish her all the best
SOoooo well done. Loved it. Thank you.
Beautiful art, beautiful artist, I wish her a well deserved success
What a lovely documentary. I really love her work (although I have not seen it before). A lot of the subjects look like they are from the 70's.
Thank you! I agree that the charm of her work is also one of its appealing qualities!
I could watch this all day!
We appreciate your kind words! It is truly encouraging.🥰
I find Alice's work process and vision extremely interesting and intriguing. This is for me what art is - skills, imagination, thinking process, a story to tell and so much more depth to her works!
Perhaps it's making her present more beautiful ❤
I think so too!
Inspirational from a down to earth acceptance of intuition is my heartfelt opinion. Making one's past beautiful is a magic in itself and I am more emboldened in my own pursuits after watching and listening to Alice. Thank you. Blessings
Your heartfelt words mean the world to us! Wishing you continued courage and success on your journey. Blessings and gratitude right back to you! 🌟✨
Amazing and breathtakingly beautiful! I applaud your courage and loyalty to your own true self - your life is the story of your art is the story of your life is the story of your art…❤
Thank you for your kind words! I'll make sure to convey your admiration to the artist. She will be happy to know her art resonates with such appreciation. Thank you for recognising the depth of her story and work!
Beautiful inside and out . Love her work.
Absolutely, beauty in both the canvas and the soul! 🥰
A beautiful being and an inspiring video. Thank you for brightening my day.
You also made my day! Thank you for your kind words!
I loved her style, she is very talented and beautiful 💙🌹

noway just no way i'm impressed !! how did you come up with this idea ??i love it !!!thank you please more videos about the idea and your philosophy in life.... waiting
It's called having an imagination. Which most creatives do.
That sounds fantastic! I'm glad that you enjoyed the idea, and I'm excited to create more videos featuring diverse artists and their philosophies. For those interested in learning more about Alice, I recommend watching the couple's interview (it's on now)and following her on Instagram for more insights. Stay tuned for more content coming your way!
LOVELY, YES MAKE YOR PAST BEAUTIFUL XXXX
💫💫💫💫💫
I cried everyday on the way to and from modeling school. I quit the day we were going to start working. It was eating me alive and I knew it wasn't a healthy life. Most of the girls in school were suffering from eating disorders and deep depression. It was horrible. It took me a long time to see beauty in imperfections, but I really like who I am today, as an artist, and a free thinker. Great work in many ways, bravo!
Thank you for sharing your personal journey with such honesty and vulnerability. It takes tremendous courage to recognise when a path is not aligned with our well-being and to make the brave decision to change course. Your resilience and self-awareness are truly admirable. I'm glad to hear that you've found beauty in imperfections and have embraced your identity as an artist and free thinker. Your strength and authenticity are an inspiration to us all. Keep shining bright! ✨
I’m in luv😻🥰😍🤩
happy to hear that!🪄
NICE WORK.
🙌
Very interesting 🤔
영상 색감도 좋고 내용도 좋고 …🤍
시간내어 재밌게 봐주셔서 감사합니다🫶🫶
1:00 I like how she came up with the concept of her project 'Whispering Game' :D What is fake, what is real? Love the idea!
very creative indeed!🩵
In the UK we call it Chinese Whispers.... 😊🇬🇧
It's fascinating to see similar games across different cultures! In Korea, we play a game called “고요속의 외침(screaming in the silence)," while players wear headphones, listen to loud music, and attempt to guess the word someone else is saying! It seems like the game reflects the passionate nature of Koreans😆😆
you are so amazing and unique , many Models have this selfastime feel sorry that woman who are so beautiful in there young age mindfuck so much abot that they are not enough. Yor paints are great.❤
Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! It's unfortunate how societal pressures can affect even the most beautiful individuals. Your empathy is truly admirable. I'm glad you appreciate her work and the interview❤️
Luar biasa,diamnya seniman adlah karya..👍🙏
Absolutely! The silence of the artist indeed speaks volumes🙏
sorry for some mistakse in my writing. I realy did enjoy your Interview it is so inspiering❤
No worries at all! Your message is perfectly clear, and I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the interview. It's heartwarming to know that you found it inspiring. Thank you for your kind words! ❤️
Мне очень нравится.
Это очень красиво.
Художница восхитительная.
Я чувствую, что это моё.❤
I'm so glad you like it! The artist did an amazing job, and I'm happy to hear that you feel a connection to it☺️
As a previous model, she is beautiful indeed with those unique outfit too. She has talent but the art is more towards illustration. Norman Rockwell painted multiple figures. I suppose that;s her next endeavour. 🙏🏼😊
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I'm glad you appreciate her talent and unique style😌
Она прекрасна
I couldn't agree more!
Good talk
Thanks!✨✨
Well Done
❤
Is this collage meaning you intermix painting with cut out objects? So you’re actually including your images…Thanks! 🙏🏽
Vackert!
Thank you!
Я впервые вижу этот канал.
Моё восхищение.❤
Thank you so much for checking out the channel! I'm thrilled that you enjoyed it. I hope you continue to find it interesting. ❤️
Сегодня ночью мне не спалось, я включила телевизор, и ко мне пришёл Ваш канал,
Я начала смотреть и чувствовала себя счастливой.
Обычно я не подписываюсь, очень мало, в редких случаях.
Художница меня потрясла и покорила своими работами.
Моё хобби живопись цветов, писать также на стекле, люблю делать украшения из полимерных материалов. Люблю смотреть работы модных
Дизайнеров, посещать картинные галлереи.
В картинах Алисы буквально собрано всё, что я люблю.
И смотреть на это можно бесконечно и получать наслаждение.
Спасибо огромное.❤
Это тот редкий случай, когда я подписалась на канал.
Буду ждать новинки.❤
Very original. You are too talented and too beautiful kissing frogs though :)
Yes, it is such an original work of art and herself. Also got inspired a lot whilst having this conversation💕
jag gillar och älskar ditt målnin och ditt leende.
she would love to hear that I guess!
we have something in common. I am also Aries and I wanted to be a Model when I was 16 years of age but I was to smal . And since a couple of years I startet to paint selftaught with watercolor. Love it very much.
That's incredible! It's fascinating how you can find common ground in unexpected ways. Self-teaching can be such a rewarding experience, especially when it's fueled by passion. Keep nurturing that love for painting-it sounds like it's become a beautiful part of your life journey :)
@@december.artfilms thank you very much for your kind and supportiv words .
And the fun fact is that her name 'Alice' really suits her, in her work.
Alice in wonderland? 😜
Can I ask what kind of paper do you use? Is it cotton canvas unstretched? And is it oil paints? Thank you.
She used several media like gouache, watercolour, Oli and crayons! I am unsure about the paper, but you can find her on her Instagram! @aliceherbst, I hope you find out!🥰
please please i need more and more of this ideas i found myself in this can you make a video about the meaning and importance of " as if it was true " ? we need this badly in our life please talk about it as numerous thing we can''t get and make it come true
I apologise for any disappointment, but I appreciate your enthusiasm for the series. Unfortunately, the episode you watched was the last one of this particular series in Stockholm. I would like to do more interviews with her in the future. I'm grateful for your support and interest in the content. If you have any other topics you'd like me to explore in the future, please feel free to let me know!

min 4:50 is the bst painting.
She seems more like a model
Thank you for your observation! Alice indeed has an incredible talent in both her art and her presence. It's wonderful when artists bring their unique qualities to their work. Alice's creations speak volumes, showcasing a blend of artistic skill and personal flair. While her appearance might have model-like qualities, it's equally important to recognise the depth and creativity she brings to her artistic endeavours. Beauty in both form and expression!
Please can y’all try doing a documentary or maybe even interview with\ on James Jean
Thank you for your suggestion! I'd be honoured to interview James Jean if the opportunity arises. We'll look into the possibility. Stay tuned for more exciting content!🎥

I hope if this video comes with Translation in Arabic
Thanks for showing interest in the video! I think you can get some Google's help. If you turn on the subtitles, there might be an option for Google's automatic translation, including Arabic. I'm not sure how accurate it'll be, but I hope it helps a bit!🩵

An extremely talented painter with a unique vision. So, why does this video seem like a struggle between a pointless fashion magazine shoot and a respectful look at her work? She's beautiful and has a sense of style. So what? It should be about one thing -- her work, not her beauty. Shame on somebody.
Thank you for sharing your perspective. I appreciate your focus on the importance of highlighting the artist's work rather than placing undue emphasis on her appearance. It's true that her talent and unique vision should be the central focus. However, I also believe that understanding an artist's personal life can provide valuable insights into their work. It's a delicate balance, and I hope future presentations can find a harmonious way to showcase both the other's artistic prowess and the meaningful aspects of their life. Everyone's input contributes to a richer appreciation of our journey 🥰
An artist’s work may look like it’s about other things, but it’s always about themself. It’s their unique mind and personality interacting between their inner world and outer world, and then synthesizing and describing (through their art) the contact points. This artist is working through her inner feelings about who she is and her place in the world, which the outer world wants to define solely by physical beauty. No human being can possibly live up to the world’s ideals. She struggles to redefine herself according to her own ideals. Maybe in 20 years her work will look entirely different, but right now the tension between what the world wants her to be and what she is actually becoming has everything to do with beauty-real and perceived. The video rather perfectly encapsulates that struggle.
Why separate the art from the artist? Who she is, with every aspect of who she is, influences her art. I love videos like these because they don't just focus on the art, but they also focus on the artist. I found it a very beautifully shot and respectful honoring video.
Often times i feel knowing about the artist adds volume to their work, making it more complex.
art cannot and should never be separated from the artist. the creation is inherently tied to its creators, so it makes perfect sense to delve into not only the art, but also the artist themselves.
