The World Championship of Sand Sculpting has been under way in Federal Way, Wash., since Sept. 8, and artists’ work will remain on display until Oct. 10. The annual event, which draws competitors from around the world, took place in Canada for more than 20 years; this year marked the first time the United States served as the host country. artists compete for the top title in three categories: solo, double and teams.
Racing against the clock, members of Team Sandboxers fill wood forms with sand and water during the “pound up” stage of the Federal Way, Wash., event. The teams have six hours to pound their sand into solid cubes suitable for carving.
