She won the Geoffrey Rhodes Prize for the highest first-year exam results, and is a multi-award winning conceptual artist working with photography and installations - Amy doesn't paint as she finds it 'too messy'. Amy wants to incorporate her experience in the Big Brother House into her artwork. She is also an accomplished musician who plays the saxophone, piano, clarinet and trombone. During the Andy McNab task, both Amy and Anthony were taken away and interrogated. They were both given a code and whoever didn't tell the code to McNab won a £5,000 prize and immunity to that weeks eviction. Jackson was favourite to win the series, but she finished third place on the final day, Day 26. Jackson has recently graduated with a first-class degree in a Fine Art Bfa from Oxford University and is working as an artist. Since leaving university she has founded a new website called Lost Found and Loved Again for likeminded artists and designers who create upcycled goods from vintage items.
