the premise that one can make art devoid of politics is a naiveté. shed your blindness. you cannot afford not to see your own bias.

imo it's possible to be "over" politics. or at least have fiercely apolitical phases (was a great way to stay sane in 2016)
even I create political art sometimes (twitter.com/allgebrah/stat) but I usually try to shield people from the everyday madness

absolutely- choosing how to relate to it, how explicitly to promote a message, etc., is important. and escapism is important.
