Early life and education

Career

Mikula spent several years in the art industry including a stint on an art jury. In 1998, she landed her first solo exhibition. Her published landscape photography collections have been displayed in both solo and group exhibitions in New York City, Miami, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.[4] Mikula exhibited "large-scale digital Duraflex prints" at the New York State House in 2007. In 2008, she opened her first show in New York.[5] Mikula had an exhibition in 2009 at the TJ Walton Gallery in Provincetown with Rachel Maddow and Suzanne Westenhoefer attending.[6] In 2010, Mikula had her first photography show, American Device Recent Photographs, in San Francisco.[7][8] A year later, Mikula released a three part industrial landscape series titled American Bond. These American vistas spanned images of America from Texas to California to Massachusetts.[9] Her 2013 series, u.X, were inspired by the Lascaux cave paintings.[10] In 2015, Mikula released a series of psychologically enigmatic pigment prints titled Photo Book.[11] Mikula's more Pittsfield focused photograph galleries were also on display at the Ferrin Gallery.[12][13] Since 2017, Mikula has been a part of the Art in Embassies program for United States Consulate in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico doing site specific works for the organization.[14] Some of Mikula's works were purchased by the United States Embassy Art in Embassies (Nuevo Laredo Mexico) for their Permanent Collections.[15]

Artistry

Mikula finds inspiration from painters. In an interview with The Advocate, she listed the following artists specifically: Julian Schnabel, Joan Mitchell, Cy Twombly, Gerhard Richter, Agnes Martin. Some of her local influences include Maggie Mailer, Charlie Hunter, TJ Walton, and Ward Schumaker.[2]

Personal life

Mikula's sister is a medical photographer in Boston.[1] Mikula is the longtime partner of current MSNBC commentator Rachel Maddow.[16][17] They met in 1999 while Maddow was doing her doctoral dissertation.[22] Mikula hired Maddow to work on her yard and they went on to date before they became partners.[18] Their first date was at the "Ladies Day on the Range" event hosted by the National Rifle Association.[19] They reside in a pre-Civil War farmhouse in Western Massachusetts and an apartment in West Village, Manhattan.[20]
