Sherry Czekus is a Canadian painter working in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario. She completed her MFA at University of Western Ontario in London, ON and a Bachelor of Art with Fine Art Studio Specialization at University of Waterloo. She has been a recipient of an Ontario Arts Council grant and Region of Waterloo Arts Fund grant.

The public domain, specifically the city, is a site of observation of urban crowd culture and its participants that Czekus explores through painting.

"My creative process begins outside on the sidewalks of large city centres where I capture images of the urban crowd in its natural habitat; people walking to work, running errands, getting coffee and socializing. Everyday experiences of the crowd performing the mundane reveal a simultaneous representation of traces of our lives. My paintings reflect a kind of social portrait, providing cues to aspects like fashion and electronic technology of the moment."
