DŌGEN, EIHEI (道元)

1200–1253

Genjōkōan / Being-Time (The Layer of Now)

Dōgen: each moment is the totality; being and time are one act. CoCA's Layer Cake Pages (§2.2.2) is genjōkōan typographically. Each draft of the page is the page; the prior drafts show through but are not behind. The artist's CV is the same: each version is the artist, and each version is visible. Time is not the line. Time is the stack.
