The discussion of the master's thesis starts with the basic definition of confessional art and then finding an appropriate translation into the Slovene language, and thus also during the master's thesis, with the introduction of confessional art into the Slovenian art scene. That is why the title of the theoretical MA thesis is fairly generic, since this type of art is quite unknown, at least by definition, until we mention Tracey Emin as the "best known" or better, most commercially recognized representative. And that is why, in my research, I try to present other examples of her generation. This led me to explore the precursors and where and with whom everything started before the breakthrough on the art market. The art market is merely a component in everyday life and is shaped according to the life factors that dictate to us. If / when an individual (in this case an artist) sees this and does not assimilate, he can take artistic expression as a tool. From there the order follows chapters on different models of (collective) identification and art as a form of therapy. Before concluding with my own works and presenting MA practical work #Selfie, I look where, if anywhere, confession is present in our cultural scene.
