But it would be like judging people who work in the field, spending the entire year on the centerpiece and then burning it to the ground after the festival.

I think there's a bit more made than what's burned, but I believe we can agree that you can also think of it like a sand mandala[0].

All art, like all things, is ephemeral. Burning Man just makes this explicit.
