Undine, Loreley, Homer’s Sirenen, Arielle – the woman with the fish tail has swum through our myths for centuries. In a mixture of performance, pop-concert and object theater Koikate examines images of fish, women and the scaly abyss of societal gender, body and identity models. What expectations have established themselves in our minds, and which ones have registered themselves in our bodies? And just how sexy can a fish tail be when something crucial is missing down there?
