Relationships and affection are the keys to understanding the piece We Are One, according to its author LucFosther Diop. Originated from the experience of immigrating to the Netherlands, the video presents the contradictions and dualities of ties between human beings. It is also a form of resistance against the Western way of life, where sharing and welcoming are scarce, and social ties are always mediated by a previous classification of individuals into separate ethnic and cultural groups. As such, he discusses his work as a poem that celebrates daily interactions among human beings.
