Shye Klein
Light Seeker
Through Limor Garfinkle’s lens, we celebrate heroes like Shye, a Canadian-Israeli photographer and public speaker whose journey embodies resilience and rediscovery. Born in Toronto, he made Aliyah in 2023, seeking connection and purpose. At the Nova music festival on October 7, Shye survived the Hamas attack and instinctively documented the horror as it unfolded—turning trauma into testimony. Since then, he has spoken in over 230 cities, sharing his story with tens of thousands and using his lens to preserve truth and humanity. Through his project Beyond The Supernova, Shye re-humanizes survivors of the Nova Festival, capturing not only their pain but their enduring light.
