Seva Kunj is an Italian Renaissance-style building constructed in the 1910s by the Shahani family, a prominent Sindhi-Hindu family known for their contributions to education in Sindh. Originally serving as a hostel for students pursuing higher education in Karachi, its name,meaning "service grove" in Sanskrit,reflected its purpose as a place of learning and community. The building was abandoned in the 1980s amid rising ethnic conflicts among student groups and has since fallen into ruin. Today, Seva Kunj stands as a reminder of Karachi's educational and social history, marked by changing times and shifting social dynamics.
The original artwork was a part of Ozair's solo show at Khalikdina Hall, called Karachi's Lost Communities.
