Geary is pleased to present Lobitos: pueblo fantasma (Lobitos: ghost town), a solo exhibition by photographer, Summers Moore, on view August 1-September 27, 2026.

Lobitos: pueblo fantasma showcases a compelling look at the life of a small Peruvian fishing village that has undergone many identities. In the 19th century, Lobitos was a booming 19th-century oil town under colonial rule and then became a military outpost, eventually becoming a semi-abandoned ghost town inhabited by surfers, healers and artists living amongst deteriorating historic buildings and military barracks. Lobitos: pueblo fantasma is a story of transformation: of things built, abandoned and made into new.

Moore captured these images while visiting her daughter’s equine therapy ranch in Lobitos. While there, Moore befriended Inti, a local artist and community organizer who runs a community art center called Kapchay. Several pieces in this exhibition show Inti’s murals, beautifully painted on crumbling buildings near the ocean. This exhibition encompasses Moore’s interest in exploring the many facets of healing and community building visible through photography.
