Joseph came to London at the age of eight, and in 1967 enrolled on art classes at the Central School of Art, continued by a painting course at the Slade School of Art, University of London. His work is often figurative and centred on the themes of reality, or rather the surreality, of life in the city. He lives and works in London.
