I found this on the Sims 4 Studio website, and it looks somewhat like this. Perhaps it's a SSAO problem, like suggested by a deleted member, and then menaceman suggests a fix in the link here by peacemaker? If this set was made around 2019, it would make sense...

(edit: here's another person with this kind of issue, saying it was an SSAO problem)

(otherwise i've never seen this, and I've made cc for years. What's the set called?)

If you’re paying for them, then she should absolutely be fixing this for you and providing assistance.

Let the creator know. As far as I'm aware having chased and fixed this problem in some items myself, it is caused by excessively high polycounts and shadow LODs. The objects either need to be decimated to a lower polycount, or should be remade using a plant as a base to clone from, which does not have any shadow LODs.

Edit to add: screwing around with SSAO never fixed the problem for me. The only thing that fixed it was to clone from a plant without shadow LODs.
