A clown symbolizes the vibrant misfit in a world that demands you to be normal. A circus becomes a home for the misfits. And the killer clown symbolizes the misfit turned into a villain.

Symbolism: Why a Clown?

The Trickster and the clown (archetypal figures in Jungian psychology), use humor, chaos and boundary-crossing to challenge norms, reveal hidden truths and provoke personal and societal transformation.

The clown symbolizes the tension between the persona, the social mask and the shadow, the hidden, often repressed parts of ourselves, revealing the emotional complexity behind appearances.

The clown also symbolizes the inner child, the playful, imaginative and free-spirited part of ourselves, reminding us to reconnect with joy, creativity and fantasy.

Clowns embody how humor can serve as a powerful defense mechanism, both protecting us from emotional pain and revealing deeper truths, by masking vulnerability.

By joking the word 'jackpot' to describe his genitals as a transgender man (if 3 equals jackpot, then so do 3 holes), MAVAOTIC transformed judgement and insecurity into his superpower, using humor and symbolism to celebrate bodily uniqueness, reject binary expectations and affirm that self-definition, free from societal judgment, is to embrace the colorful and unique individual you are.

MAVAOTIC’s daily colorful fashion looks are a vibrant act of self-expression and rebellion, celebrating our unique and complex individuality full of fantasy and dreams, in a world losing its colors and a society demanding you to be normal.

MAVAOTIC his stage personas, Mel Stardust (The Heart) and JACKPOT (The Head), though opposites, both deliver the same powerful truth: that confidence and worth comes from within. Reminding us that we don't need external validation and that the real jackpot / star, is within you.
