The Unfolding Story of POLŪTNOT®

The Unfolding Story of POLŪNOT marks the beginning of a plan to engage the city in a major environmental initiative.

POLŪTNOT® is an art surface made from recycled plastic grocery bags that can be used instead of canvas and paper.

On Earth Day, April 22, 2018, Mebane will launch an exhibit at the Harambee Art Gallery at City Hall, where she is the educational director and cofounder, featuring the art of Houston area high school and college students and professional artists using POLŪTNOT exclusively as the art surface.

“However,” Mebane reports, “the major environmental initiative in the works is a Guinness World Record challenge to create the largest mural made from recycled plastic grocery bags.  It will be staged here in Houston on a giant plastic bag surface. I am currently in talks and negotiations with Guinness to formulate and schedule the challenge.”
