Senegalese music icon Baaba Maal has released this stunning video for Gilli Men directed by Nate Camponi, in which movement, art and neon colours collide into a sensuous celebration of human expression.The video cycles through a group of artists as they react to the music and engage with their own creative mediums, including a graffiti artist painting a mural in vivid colour and a troupe of neon-splattered dancers performing under the vibrant reflection of a blacklight. Not to mention the fine artists - a painter who makes a portrait and a sculptor who make a bust - both of Baaba Maal.
