He needs to create the thing, but may not need to do anything with it, or have anyone else do anything with it. Another may later stumble across it, without the creator intending they should do so. In that case, the effect on the reader/viewer would have played no part in the creator's intention. The art is a product of the moment & the mood the artist found himself in. He may have been driven to create his art with no thought of what he (or anyone else for that matter) would 'do' with it.

This is certainly true. However, in the case of LOTR, as I noted above, this is not the case.
