His works are often presented in public spaces and have been exhibited around the world, including in the United States, Europe, Asia and Latin America.In addition to his sculptures, Barrios has also worked on urban design projects, using his expertise in architecture to create public spaces that combine art and function. He has received numerous awards and recognitions throughout his career, and his work is part of public and private collections around the world.
