"Zombie Katrina" is the culmination of the Louisiana Polaroid Trilogy. It is the final project undertaken with Boyd’s remaining stock of original Polaroid film. The concept originated while photographing Larry King for "Louisiana Cereal" as Boyd discussed the toxic legacy of Hurricane Katrina and the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Boyd asked King if he would model for a portrait with special effects make-up to draw attention to the dangers of mankind’s pollution of the planet. The theme of portraits celebrities and individuals made up to speak about this issue developed into a cross -country project. Boyd travelled across the United States with special effects make-up artists Bryan Fulk and Rob "The Kid" Lindores to document around 100 people as zombies weaving their fates together through a conceptual narrative referencing "The Shining", "Shaun of the Dead", the writings of Hunter S. Thompson and Jack Kerouac’s "On the Road". The storyline features several of the more well-known models tying their fates together through front page headlines, a water color illustrated journal and a series of oversize painted portraits.
