Artists and writers should approach Hyssop Press with a clear understanding of its experimental focus. Submissions are open twice yearly, with guidelines posted on the website. Work that blurs genres, challenges conventional narratives, or integrates text and image is particularly welcomed. A concise artist statement and a sample of recent work are required. The review process is thorough, typically taking three to four months. Simultaneous submissions are accepted, but please notify promptly if your work is placed elsewhere. The press values thoughtful, well-edited proposals and encourages applicants to familiarize themselves with past issues to gauge alignment.
