Just reading the title I wanted to mention Henry Darger, who produced art, a huge manuscript in fact, along with a few more things with no seeming intention of ever sharing it with the world. He is certainly not alone. There are many people who use art not for social purposes or social commentary or anything like that, they just to it because they like it. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Darger https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Darger But after reading the article, especially this part: “ But no art form exists apart from our social relationships.” I think this is true. Even in the case of outsider artists or people doing it to relax or whatever, it has a social component to it. Whatever is produced is a result of social interactions, knowingly or otherwise.
