Essence Press primarily publishes works by Julie Johnstone. Works and installations by Julie Johnstone concern perception, distillation, silence, and contemplative experience. Recent works include:
ephemera
'incredibly sensitive
pieces ... gentle,
contemplative' Julie

and artist's books, are made with an almost unbearable lightness of
touch.
