Sherry is descended from Maliseet and Passamaquoddy grandparents and is a member of the Tobique First Nations living in Argyle, ME. She grew up in the United States away from her culture and community in Canada. As an adult, Sherry went home to Tobique territory to reclaim what was lost to her. She learned how to make her first dreamcatcher from her cousin’s wife, Terri-Ann Sappier, and with this she found her Medicine. She describes the process of making each dreamcatcher as feeling like remembering.
Sherry’s dreamcatchers are one-of-a-kind heirlooms; none are exactly the same. She incorporates healing stones and crystals in her signature web.
