Mary Anne speaks to American singer-songwriter Moses Sumney and one of the four Turner Prize nominees, Naeem Mohaiemen, as part of the launch of 'Art Is Everywhere'.

Moses Sumney grew up in America and Ghana before moving to L.A to attend university and hone his musical career. Moses’ music is heavily influenced by Mark Rothko’s artwork - he has even used the name of a Rothko to title his EP. He speaks to Mary Anne about how he identifies with Rothko’s story, and how his pieces have influenced his musical career and life ambitions.

Turner Prize nominee Naeem Mohaiemen is a documentary maker, fiction film creator, he creates installations and is an academic writer. Naeem joins us to talk about his nominated work which is a combination of autobiography, family history, an exploration of national borders, archived film, new film interviews, photography and essays.

Â鶹ÊÓƵAV Radio 6 Music's annual art weekender, 'Art Is Everywhere', takes place on the 1st and 2nd of December, tying in directly with the 2018 Turner Prize.
