US-BASED SINGAPORE PHOTOGRAPHER LOSES SUIT AGAINST LUXEMBOURG ARTIST SHE ACCUSED OF PLAGIARISM
US-based Singapore photographer Zhang Jingna has lost her suit against Luxembourg artist Jeff Dieschburg for allegedly plagiarizing her work.

Dieschburg also displayed the work at an exhibition in Luxembourg and won a prize of €1,500 for it.
This is not the only time Dieschburg has been accused of misappropriating another artist's work and claiming full credit for it. The US photographer Bekka Björke has also accused him of doing the same with their photography:

"I know that as individuals, it may not seem like there's much we can do. But even if we are alone, the act of many individuals fighting for what's right, over time, may one day be collectively enough to make a difference in this world.
So next time you see someone do this to another artist and claim that:
- "using a different medium is transformative and not copyright infringement", or
- "this was found on the internet so it's free to use!"
Show them my case. Because they are wrong."
