We need a different word for the personal meaning of artistic process in service of the muse rather than money.
funnily enough, in turkish the words for medium specific arts like visual arts and music have seperate words to culturally significant or expressive works. “Sanat” is the word for the latter, we even have a genre called “Türk Sanat Müziği” or “Turkish artistic/culture music”
EDIT: For example, “Resim” refers to drawings and paintings, “görsel sanatlar” visual arts, including sculptures (heykeltraş). Sanatkar is artist, regardless of medium, müzisyen is musician, etc.
