It is accompanied by a poem that captures the essence of each artwork: It's hot / it's summer / it's 39 degress. / I sweat. / I melt. I sleep / I dream profundly / Oniric or real. / It's all the same now / I blink. / Everything is blurry. / It's hot. / It's 39 degrees / and everything is melting around me. By combining both photographs and [oil paints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/painting-exhibition) in 39° by Daniela Carvalho, she is able to depict the scenes as melting before her audience's very eyes as though actually affected by the heat. The results are mesmerizing.
