Image Caption: The hand of the enigmatic Dexter Stewart holds a photograph from his early days as a Moko Jumbie. Hailing from Point Fortin, South Trinidad, he began walking bamboo sticks in the 1970s, using an improvised costume to take part in Children's Carnival around the age of eleven. Later mentorship by John Cupid and Dave Robeson would then expose him to opportunity and the mythologies of Old Mas and Moko Jumbie.
