Camex Aeolian Wind Harps

Steven D. Cameron, a native of Guelph, Ontario, is an Adrian Michigan based artist/craftsman. As a geologist by trade, he has always been in awe of nature and natural phenomenon and it’s powerful contrasts and creations. During his time in the North Country, Steve reveled in the sound and power of the wind blowing through the trees of the boreal forest. His interest in wind harps began through his studies at DePaul University (Chicago IL), while taking a class on creativity and imagination. He continually read about wind harps and their history from 5BC Greek Culture to their influence on the creativity of 19th century artists such as Thoreau, Chopin, and Emerson. Though his continued research, Steve discovered that wind harps were the perfect medium for combining his love of Earth, Wind, Fire and Water. Each CAMEX wind harp is crafted individually by hand. They are made of a variety of domestic hard and soft woods. These woods are all derived from a sustainable source so as not to damage the future of the environment. The size and grain of the wood actually dictates the parameters of each instrument. This is what gives each CAMEX wind harp its own unique sound. Steve’s work is being well received in this his second year as an emerging artist. He has been featured in a magazine article, conducted his first solo gallery exhibition at the Croswell Gallery (circa 1866) where he unveiled “The Historical Collection”, Radio in both Michigan and Ohio as well as having won several awards at regional art festivals for his work with Aeolian Harps. Steve is also an award winning public speaker and is available for various engagements. He also conducts on-site workshops and unique fundraising activities related to his work with the Aeolian Wind Harp. CAMEX is the result of the inspiration to enjoy nature and your natural surroundings through the subtle joys of natural experiences.
