The film has yet to drop, but if you haven’t already arrived at the conclusion that DEBBY FRIDAY is a creative superforce, her YouTube channel contains all the evidence you need. Earlier this year, as part of her thesis project, she released an audiovisual play split into three parts, titled ‘Link Sick’, ‘Vow’ and ‘V For Virtual’. Plucking from her fascination with sci-fi and speculative futures, it’s set in a hallucinogenic, post-apocalyptic world where citizens upload their consciousness into a system called Virtual.
“A lot of what I read is psychology so there are concepts in there like shadows and ego, super-ego and collective consciousness,” she explains. “I’m a big fan of Jung and his work, and I incorporate all of that into these types of projects. It’s the same across all of my creative escapades, just taking whatever I have inside of this brain and putting it into whatever’s in front of me right now.”
Using her extensive education in art as a springboard, FRIDAY continuously engages every layer of her creative self to deliver full-bodied experiences. “I see everything essentially as practice,” she says. “When you’re an artist, all the work that you make is practice because it teaches you something and you take that with you into the next project. I love this kind of feeling of never-ending-ness – this idea that there’s no destination you need to reach with your creativity. You just have to keep going for as long as you want. And for me, I want to go for the rest of my life.”
