The characteristics of Barrios works include shapes that altered geometric laws to enable volume suspension in space. His sculptures include features like orthodox directionality breaking, which opened new perception possibilities.   One of the popular quotes by Barrios is, "As long as we insist on proposing virtual reality as a representation of universal identity, we are making the same academic mistake made when affirming that painting is destined to fixate a moment of reality, without realizing that not even photography, which is considered as the nearest invention that allows us to catch instantaneity, escapes the temporal value between the fixation of the stimulus, and the time of its perception."
