Riot Act (2017) is a static stage-set featuring riot-gear and liturgical chasubles lit by anxiety-inducing strobe lighting: a dressing room in the event of what Harman believes to be the inevitable breakdown of the status quo. Interested in human fear, Riot Act questions the ways by which we might seek to protect ourselves in the absence of law and order.
