Deadline can reveal that Jackson has spent time traveling America speaking to people who know Trump, including childhood acquaintances, former colleagues, and those who have accused him of sexual misconduct. She will then use these conversations as inspiration for a series of works on the U.S. leader.

The often hazy images are designed to deceive people into thinking they are authentic. Jackson is famous for creating an image of Queen Elizabeth II sitting on the toilet, which formed part of the key artwork for 2003’s BBC seriesand in 2016, she did a Trump shoot for Vanity Fair magazine. The images featured Trump’s lookalike getting a spray tan in the Oval Office and experimenting with finger extenders.
