Time scatters. We run — but do we hide? Tick tack, the roof is cracking, covering our fur with paledust. Tick tack — how do we react when what we used to know takes on a different shape, oreven falls apart? From whom do we run? We do fly, sometimes. Do we dance alone, or go to sleep with a kiss on our cheek?

Since 2016, Ulrika Segerberg and Martin Kleinmichel have collaborated under the name matka, gradually shaping their debut album — each song accompanied by a video. The installation at Toolbox features their latest track Collapse, along with paintings and sculptural props used in the video. Frame by frame, the lens captures a search — not for narrative or meaning, but perhaps for those fleeting, quiet moments that comfort us when no one is watching. Martin composed the music and edited the video. Ulrika wrote the lyrics, contributed the hookline, and sang.
