Norwalk artist says she wants viewers to ask questions when viewing her bone sculptures Joel Lang FacebookTwitterEmail Norwalk artist Miller Opie creates bone sculptures.© Miller Opie / Contributed photo Last fall, Norwalk artist Miller Opie won the Jacobson sculpture award at the Silvermine Art Center’s annual A-One show for a pair of pieces fashioned primarily from moose bone. Yes, that’s right: moose, the antlered animal of northern forests. Now, as a reward for winning the A-One prize, Opie has two more animal bone sculptures in Silvermine’s current new members’ show, running through March 13. The smaller of the two, titled “Jete” after the ballet leap, also incorporates moose bone. This time, Opie has used a pair of surprisingly thin ribs. Set vertically and slightly bowed on a block of hemlock wood, the ribs suggest striding legs arrested in forward motion.
