If your definition of art includes things made without a self, a thinking mind with intention and agency then go ahead and ponder how the Sun and human DNA are art, I’ll wait for when you come back with a new definition.
You are welcome to produce a definition that separates those things.
You have seen my definition. By definition an act of self-expression cannot occur without a self.
Without clarifying what makes something art, your claim that art can be something produced without a self (i.e., is not self-expression) demotes art to the level of “any random thing”.
The production of art that people want to experience probably requires a self, but may only require the belief that a self was involved.
The experience of art requires a self, as do all experiences.
