Fer Boyd is a writer and artist whose bodily theories and ecstatic narratives manifest in fiction, sound, film and performance. Recent concepts include re-weaponising inevitability away from malign forces, queer regurgitation, consuming the beloved, forbidden colours, near-death psychedelia, and the ouroboros of denial and prediction faced by humans.

They are the author of the short fiction collection 'Frot the World' (Canal, 2022), and the winner of The Space Crone Prize for speculative and science short fiction awarded by Silver Press and The Ursula K. Le Guin Literary Trust (2023). Their winning story 'Sever Babylon' was published by Granta. In 2018 they won the Prix International for Creative Critical Thinking for their writing in 'Skinned/Detouched' (Motto Books & Eastside Projects) an artist book by Alice Channer, nominated by Fatoş Üstek. Their corporeal manifesto 'A Theory for the Strange-Girl: Raw Red Text' was released by COUNTRY MUSIC in 2017, and has been read worldwide at club nights, festivals, on syllabuses and in reading groups, as well as metamorphosed into music and performed underwater.

They have been collaborating with Madeleine Stack since 2017. Their feature-length docu-drama 'The Deeps' exhibited at Cordova, Barcelona in 2025. Recent performances include 'The Altered State' (Sant Andreu Contemporani, Barcelona, 2024), 'Guard the Delight' (CLUBS Art a la pista, Barcelona, 2023), 'Gilding the Rim' (Forma, London, 2023) & 'God’s Gloryhole' (SLUG, Leipzig, 2022).
