VISUAL SIGNATURES is a Public Service Announcement (PSA) that highlights a vast cultural array of visual artists who share with viewers their visions of creating art and the rewards of artistic expression.

ABDUL BADI is on a mission: to capture African and African American culture on canvas. Over the years, Badi has covered the gamut, from native and aboriginal peoples, as well as commissioned works. Right now, he is concentrating on documenting the metamorphosis of the African diaspora on two continents. Badi speaks frankly about his urgency of creating these new works and what he hopes to achieve in the long run

VISUAL SIGNATURES is produced by the Intercultural Alliance of Artists & Scholars, Inc. (IAAS), a NY-based nonprofit organization that promotes multicultural literature and artistic expression. Seizing the power of television to expand social consciousness, the IAAS fuels the movement for progressive social, cultural and political transformation by exposing the public to perspectives excluded from the corporate-owned media through public access television.
