The Monkeys creative director launches website to relieve stress

Siobhan Fitzgerald, a creative director at The Monkeys, has launched a website to help creatives deal with some of the challenges and stresses they face during their job.

The announcement:

Gabberish is creative therapy for creative minds.

A new website is giving creative folks a platform for dealing with some of the challenges and issues they face on the job, in the way they know best—creatively.

The site was created by Siobhan Fitzgerald, a creative at The Monkeys, Melbourne, and it launches today—featuring paintings, poems, cartoons and doodles from creatives around the country, as well as articles and interviews exploring key issues.

Fitzgerald says: “Our jobs can be exhilarating, but they can also be really tough. The creative department is highly competitive and hierarchical, and a lot of creative people have real issues with stress—but we’re not good at talking about it. Gabberish will give creatives a place to express some of their thoughts and issues creatively, or simply share some of the side projects they’ve been working on.”

Issue #1 deals with rejection and features Ant Keogh, CCO The Monkeys Melbourne, who was recently named most awarded CCO in the world by The Drum.
