 Sonnets made headlines in 2008 when Boyd had several of his works projected 84 metres high onto Europe's largest building, the Palace of the Parliament in Bucharest, and covered the entire University Square as part of the "White Night in Bucharest" Festival.In March 2010 Boyd's work was featured in a solo exhibition at the Scottish Parliament Building, where it was celebrated in a Parliamentary motion.American pianist Mike Garson paid tribute to the series in 2011 with a suite of songs directly inspired by Boyd's work, and in 2014 the series was displayed at the Museum of the Image in the Netherlands beside Caspar David Friedrich's iconic painting Wanderer above the Sea of Fog.
