About me

I am Joel Martin, a Kanien'kehá:ka designer from the Turtle Clan of Six Nations of the Grand River. My passion lies in visual storytelling, branding, and editorial design. My work is deeply influenced by Indigenous perspectives, and I strive to craft design solutions that resonate with audiences on multiple levels.

Collaboration is crucial for me; I partner with Indigenous organizations and a variety of clients to develop visuals that inspire. Every project embodies clarity and craftsmanship, weaving narratives that celebrate both community and individuality.

At Joel Martin Graphic Design, our mission is simple yet profound: we aim to create designs that narrate powerful stories while pushing the boundaries of innovation in graphic design. By merging traditional knowledge with contemporary practices, I not only showcase artistic excellence but also lay the foundation for future generations of creators to thrive.

Being able to utilize my creativity for Indigenous clients and causes will always be a priority
