Rain overwhelms sewer system in parts of US city, while temperatures in France break May record New York City saw flash flooding on Wednesday, as large parts of Brooklyn and Queens received about 2in (50mm) of rainfall in as little as 20 minutes.

Akhuetie, whose work is about to go on show at the Sarabande Foundation in London, has memories of being fascinated by hair in her childhood. โWe used to go to my mumโs friendโs house โฆโ She stops and quickly corrects herself. โMy auntieโs โ she would be called auntie, obviously.โ Akhuetie would watch her โauntieโ braiding her sisterโs hair, taken aback by how quickly her fingers moved. She also remembers doing plaits for her friends at school in Kingston, Surrey, and feeling that she was naturally good at it. Continue reading...
