About The Art School Deliquents

The prestigious Hopper School of Visual and Performing Arts is home to an eclectic group of friends and their dirty secrets. Behind the curtain and canvas, the rebellious college seniors push the limits of experimentation in any and every way they can: Drug-fueled fantasies. Sketchy nightclub encounters. Late-night graffiti bombing. They’re the adrenaline junkies your parents were terrified of.
There’s Freddie, the suave trust fund baby gone drama kid bad boy, and Victoria, his equally privileged girlfriend with a keen nose for powders and pills; Tyler, the garage band drummer from the bad part of town turned financial aid music aficionado; Mark, his misfit dorm mate, painter by day, vandal by night; Amanda, the gifted dancer on a full-tuition scholarship with a well-kept secret; and Jo, her introverted photography major roomie and with a soft spot for voyeurism. How bad can it all be, right?

When the doors of the studio art class close at Hopper School of Visual and Performing Arts, Mark trades his charcoal and brushes for spray cans and paint markers. He hits the streets and decks the walls with bold yet critical statements. Tonight, Jo wants to come along to document his course of action on Polaroids. Street after street, shot after shot, Mark and Jo find themselves out of breath and all alone in a dark alley. Just them, instant photos, and an intense rush of dopamine.
