Bywgraffiad o’r artist
Ganwyd Weixin Liu yn China, ac mae hi’n byw yn Abertawe ers blynyddoedd lawer. Roedd gan Weixin ddiddordeb mawr mewn celf a chrefft pan oedd hi’n ifanc. Ar ôl symud i Abertawe, aeth ati i hyrwyddo diwylliant Tseineaidd yn eang ac yn ystyrlon yn ei chymuned.
Mae Weixin yn gweithio fel artist cymunedol ers sawl blwyddyn, ac yn defnyddio ei sgiliau creadigol i gysylltu ac ysbrydoli eraill. Ar ôl cael Tystysgrif Addysg i Raddedigion (TAR), aeth ati i gydweithio â gwahanol gymunedau gan ddefnyddio'r celfyddydau i gefnogi llesiant a datblygiad personol unigolion. Mae hi wedi ymrwymo i rannu ei sgiliau a’i gwybodaeth, ac mae’n cael pleser o rymuso eraill drwy fynegiant creadigol.
