David Joseph

David Joseph is a Martha’s Vineyard based artist, physician, engineer and inventor.  An avid international traveler, he has visited 127 countries on all seven continents, all 50 states, and over 275 UNESCO world heritage sites, each destination an opportunity to photograph nature, wildlife, and portraits.  Unable to travel during Covid, David saw the potential to create art from the mundanity around him.  He began to create found object sculptures made of old or used common household items, toys, and sports equipment. Each whimsical, thought-provoking piece displays the balanced composition of a trained artist and the skilled construction of an engineer.  He serves on the Board of the Martha’s Vineyard Art Association and The Old Sculpin Gallery, and he exhibits in numerous galleries. He is very committed to supporting the community and he frequently donates pieces to raise money for art, education, and community services.
