"Mia Tarducci, a Pittsburgh resident and artist, alleged in a lawsuit filed Feb. 11 in federal court that Coates infringed on her copyrighted work.
In 2016, Tarducci produced a collection of eight 48-inch-by-48-inch paintings known as “Floor Details,” according to the filing in U.S. District Court for the District of Rhode Island.
“Each of the individual works in the ‘Floor Details’ collection is the subject of a United States Copyright Registration,” the court filing says."
