“I started this campaign because of the distorted way the media prioritizes between big and small world news. How can Paris Hilton make more front covers than the genocide in Darfur?”

In an effort to prove that a Paris Hilton-centric image would get more media attention than real-life Darfur victims, Nadia Plesner, a 26 year old student artist, drew this image of a Darfur victim holding a teacup style dog and toting an Louis Vuitton-inspired bag. 100% of profits from the shirts and posters she sells with this illustration that she calls “Simple Living” is donated to Divest for Darfur.

But Louis Vuitton is none too pleased with this “infringement [on their] Intellectual Property Rights” and, as of April 15, is suing Plesner for $22,000 per day that she continues her campaign.
