THE ARTIST

CheekyBuns is a queer visual artist exploring intimacy, memory, and the quiet, often unspoken moments that shape the lives of gay men. Through digital illustration and short-form video, their work captures soft emotional states — the kind that live between bodies, or quietly within just one.

The name might sound playful, but the work goes deeper: a lingering glance, a breath before touch, the silence after someone leaves, or the quiet weight of simply existing in a feeling. These images aren’t about spectacle — they’re about presence.

Each piece feels like a fragment of memory — warm, slow, sometimes tender, sometimes bittersweet. Whether focused on solitude, connection, longing, or joy, CheekyBuns invites viewers to see something of themselves reflected back with softness and honesty.

Based in Canada, CheekyBuns continues to explore the emotional landscape of gay life — one small moment at a time.
