taste buttressed by knowledge
Our Story
Culture isn’t built in boardrooms—it’s born in rooms buzzing with idea-fueled laughter, late-night risk taking, and sticky floors. We are KIN.
We are a mother-and-son duo named for what connects us: curiosity, creativity, and the kind of grit that asks—what if?
We come from worlds steeped in narrative and craft, and together we create experiences that live in your memory. We craft stories that shape culture.
DYLAN TURK
The dreamer and cultural strategist. Dylan leads with a belief: art is fire made visible. He’s the mind behind projects at Crystal Bridges Museum such as Frank Lloyd Wright’s Bachman-Wilson House and exhibitions like All or Nothing. He asks not how beautiful something is, but how it breaks the ordinary. His curatorial vision pushes past aesthetics into the deeper pulse of culture.
CHRISTIE TURK
The artist. Christie brings material, light, and memory into conversation through her work. As founder of Roll & Tumble Press, she turned letterpress into a living, breathing language. With Moodswing, she builds a place that blurry the lines between exhibition, studio, and boutique—an artist project that became a trendsetter. At KIN, Christie is the maker at the center: shaping environments, curating experiences, and ensuring that every project carries the integrity of craft and the electricity of art.
