Morphology

artistic + production

The meaning is directly and compositionally derived from 'artistic' (connected with art) modifying 'production' (the act or result of producing); the adjective+noun structure transparently signals production related to art. This is a common, cross-linguistic pattern (e.g., Spanish 'producción artística') and a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE's meaning.

Etymology

Artistic production paints a picture of a busy studio where ideas and materials are turned into paintings, sculptures, or performances. Here artistic means 'connected to art' and production means 'making', so the phrase refers to 'the act of creating works of art'.
