She has been recognized as a Cherokee National Treasure.[1][2] Her work is shown in museums around the United States.[3] BackgroundMartha Berry was born and raised in Tulsa, Oklahoma.[4] She is a registered tribal citizen of the Cherokee Nation.[4] Berry's grandmother and mother taught her how to sew and embroider at age five.[4] She made her own clothes by age nine. When she was 20, she became a professional seamstress.[4] She has expanded her skills by developing elaborate beadwork art. She taught herself the lost art of Cherokee beadwork by studying photographs of artifacts and examining Cherokee beaded artifacts at the Smithsonian Institution.[5][6] ArtworkBerry creates beaded bandolier bags, moccasins, belts, knee bands, purses and sashes. She often uses beadwork designs that evolved from pre-Contact Mississippian pottery into traditional 18th and 19th century Southeastern beadwork.[3][7] Berry discovered a unique stitch only used on Southeastern sashes.{{citation needed|date=December 2013}} She is credited with reviving the art of Cherokee beadwork, which had been in serious decline for many years.[3] Her art, expressed through utilitarian items, demonstrates themes such as duality and change throughout life.[8] Berry's beadwork also expresses "current day feelings of conflict, loss, distortion and confusion."[8] She has won prizes for her beadwork at the Cherokee Art Market, the Five Civilized Tribes Museum, the Heard Museum, and the Cherokee Heritage Center. Berry has delivered lectures on the revival of pre-Contact Cherokee beadwork at the National Liberty Museum in Philadelphia; the Bead Museum in Glendale, Arizona; Tyler Museum of Art in Tyler, Texas; Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa; Oklahoma History Center in Oklahoma City; Creek Council House Museum in Okmulgee, OK; and the Cherokee Heritage Center in Parkhill, OK. ProjectsBerry participated in the Native American Community Scholars Grant Program of the Smithsonian Institution. She has visited their collections to do further research into pre-Removal Southeastern beadwork, which has informed her own work. Berry recently curated Beadwork Storytellers: A Visual Language, a Cherokee beadwork exhibition at the Cherokee Heritage Center in Park Hill, Oklahoma.[9] The exhibition included beadwork from the collection of the University of Aberdeen Museums, Scotland which had not been seen in the United States in almost two centuries. Berry also wrote the text for the show catalog.[5] PersonalBerry lives in Tyler, Texas[6] with her husband, David. Her daughter, Christina Berry, is also a beader, photographer and publisher of "All Things Cherokee."[5] Her daughter, Karen Berry, is a Cherokee gourd artist. She served as a delegate to the 1999 Cherokee Nation Constitution Convention in Tahlequah, Oklahoma.[5][10] Her role in the convention helped the Cherokee nation in Oklahoma heal itself and "reassert itself as a capable sovereign in Oklahoma."[11] She is currently an active member of several Cherokee organizations including the Cherokee Artists Association.[12][13] Quotes"I want to make beautiful things. I want to teach more and more people to do the same, and I want to grow more and more teachers of traditional Cherokee beadwork."[3] References1. ^{{Cite news|url = http://www.muskogeephoenix.com/news/lifestyles/cherokee-art-market-set-saturday-in-catoosa/article_cb9a242c-5036-11e4-94b7-fbba9dafa9e8.html|title = Cherokee Art Market set Saturday in Catoosa|last = Spaulding|first = Cathy|date = 9 October 2014|work = Muskogee Phoenix|access-date = 23 March 2015}} 2. ^{{Cite web|url = http://www.cherokee.org/News/Stories/082813CherokeeNationhonorsoutstandingcitizens,organizations.aspx|title = Cherokee Nation Honors Outstanding Citizens, Organizations|date = 28 August 2013|accessdate = 23 March 2015|website = Cherokee Nation News Release|publisher = Cherokee Nation|last = Hubbard|first = Julie}} 3. ^1 2 3 {{Cite news|url = http://www.cherokeephoenix.org/Article/Index/7601|title = 3 Named Cherokee National Treasures|last = Chavez|first = Will|date = 13 September 2013|work = Cherokee Phoenix|access-date = 23 March 2015}} 4. ^1 2 3 {{Cite news|url = http://www.tylerpaper.com/TP-News+Local/184900/tylerite-honored-by-cherokee-nation-for-art-and-culture-contributions|title = Tylerite Honored by Cherokee Nation for Art and Culture Contributions|last = Pearson|first = Brian|date = 29 August 2013|work = Tyler Morning Telegraph|access-date = 23 March 2015}} 5. ^1 2 3 About the Artist.
