Northern Ireland has a varied seafood industry often seen as male-dominated, but women play a key role through a range of jobs.
Many women are involved in the seafood industry in Northern Ireland. They all have interesting backgrounds and motivations. Through this exhibition I helped to create for Seafish UK, look at the important role they play within the industry and learn about their individual stories.
