Based out of NY and founded in 2020 under its original name Owlskulls, Dollbite is an independent brand owned and operated entirely by myself, the artist Ri ZAS. From concept to final form, all products are created individually using original art and design.

Centered around the principle of “be yourself always”, I make art for weirdos like me: the creepy and kooky, the ones who live and breathe Halloween and horror, and those who love and are passionate about all things outside of what’s considered the ‘norm’. I believe very firmly that fitting in is overrated, and that nobody should have to tamp down their personalities just to do so. Now more than ever, it’s nothing short of vital to remain visible and push back against those who try to punish and erase us for simply not adhering to a narrow definition of normal. We are alternative and proud of it! Through Dollbite, my art has made its way all over the USA, across the world, and has even been commissioned for permanent tattoos; it’s also allowed me to contribute to causes very close to my heart, including my local food bank and mutual aid programs which provide crucial assistance to those who need it the most.

While we are most known for our unique lineup of vinyl stickers, Dollbite has gradually expanded over time to include products such as pins, prints/posters, zines, greeting cards, and embroidered patches—with more still yet to come to provide even more ways to express yourself fully! Alongside our online presence, Dollbite also makes in-person appearances throughout the year at a variety of events and markets all over New York State.
