Do our moss artworks need light?

Moss artworks are a beautiful and low-maintenance way to make a space feel more natural and cozy. A frequently asked question is whether these artworks need light to survive. The answer is simple: no, our Moswens moss artworks do not need light!

Maintenance-free and sustainable

Our moss artworks are made of natural, preserved moss. This means the moss has undergone a special treatment that keeps its soft and fresh look without water, soil, or sunlight. This makes the moss artworks ideal for spaces without natural daylight, such as offices, meeting rooms, or hallways.

Effect of prolonged sunlight

Although our moss artworks do not need light, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can have a minimal effect on the colour over time. This is because UV radiation can slowly fade the pigments in the moss.

What does this mean in practice?

  • Normal lighting or indirect daylight has no effect on the colour or quality of the moss artwork.
  • With prolonged exposure to direct sunlight (such as in front of a large south-facing window), the colour may gradually become a bit lighter over time.
  • Protecting the moss artwork from bright sunlight can help maintain its colour for longer.

Conclusion

Our Moswens moss artworks are completely maintenance-free and do not need light to stay beautiful. Want to preserve the colour as long as possible? Then it’s smart to avoid prolonged exposure to intense sunlight. That way, you can enjoy a beautiful green eye-catcher in your interior for many years!
