The Yoruba art sweetening Beyonce's Lemonade
You may not have expected to see Yoruba-inspired art in Beyonce's new video 'Lemonade' - but thanks to Nigerian-born artist Laolu Senbajo that's exactly what's happened. His-eyecatching designs have also been picked up by Nike who asked him to design an exclusive pair of trainers. But what was it like to work with Beyonce, and what's the philosophy behind Senbajo's art? Leslie Goffe caught up with him in New York.
