The Right to Human Rights – Michelle Bachelet is a powerful acrylic painting by Finnish artist Minna Pietarinen, created in 2024 as part of the internationally recognised I Was Born a Girl art series. The artwork portrays Michelle Bachelet, former President of Chile and former United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, whose career has been defined by a steadfast commitment to democracy, equality, and the protection of fundamental human rights.

 

Through a strong visual presence and expressive use of colour, the painting reflects Bachelet’s leadership, integrity, and lifelong dedication to advancing human rights on a global scale. The work embodies the I Was Born a Girl mission to honour women whose voices and actions have shaped international dialogue on justice, dignity, and social responsibility.

 

This artwork stands as both recognition and reminder — that human rights are universal, indivisible, and must be defended by courageous leadership.
