In Lord, Bring Me to a Place of Settlement, Dela Anyah explores the tension between settlement and displacement within Ghana’s informal repair networks. Building on The Vulcaniser Archive, the work extends his research into the spatial and material conditions of vulcanizer shops—sites often operating without secure land tenure and vulnerable to forced relocation.

This iteration consists of seven works collectively titled Markers, referencing GPS markers used for mapping. Each Marker comprises a text-based assemblage made from tire sandals sourced from vulcanizer shops across Ghana. The GPS coordinates of each shop are inscribed on the sandals and paired with a photograph and field note from the recorded site.

By translating field documentation into material form, Anyah transforms data into a record of presence. The work highlights how informal spaces of repair continually negotiate belonging, visibility, and permanence within unstable urban and economic systems.
