Coincidence, Jeremy Liebman

Coincidence is the debut photobook by photographer Jeremy Liebman, exploring family, memory, and ideas of home through black-and-white photography. Spanning Dallas, Texas; Brooklyn, New York; and the English countryside, the book follows three generations of the Liebman family, capturing their lives as they unfold in parallel.

After more than a decade contributing to the visual aesthetic of Apartamento magazine across 16 features, Jeremy turns his lens inward to create an intimate family portrait. The book centres on a poignant dialogue between his late father, the photographer Richard Liebman, and his young grandchildren: as they reach out to the world, Jeremy’s father’s grasp on language slowly loosens and his hold on memory slowly wanes. Somewhere between them, Jeremy finds an aperture—the possibility that they are, momentarily, seeing the world in a similar way.

Coincidence traces this convergence through fragile fragments of domestic life. Fallen books echo the collapse of language; various faces of the home—the childhood home, the nursing home—appear uncanny, promising tenderness and fullness while at times reduced to a façade, emptied out both literally and metaphysically. Set within the flow of Jeremy’s family life, the photographs become a meditation on time and inheritance, forgetting and remembering—on grappling with language at both its beginning and its end.
