Fishy is one of the pieces from my thesis. It communicates about apathetic life style. Canned food that we consumed everyday is boring and apathetic, like how we often anticipate canned goods as a way of survival only, it will be quickly translated as lack of care about what you eat. Many elements here are repetitive, same as the fish pattern on the table cloth, and the perspective, very direct, repetitive, straight-on.
