Uh? Never heard that word with that meaning. The closest we have is "cagole" (vulgar/promiscuous girl) in Marseilles vernacular, and "passer à la casserole" (to be subject to sexual intercourse, consensual or not).
The text is on the SMAK museum website. Apparently the artist had strange thoughts about his design. To say the least, everyone is a little eccentric in one way or another, isn't it?

Me neither "casserole" as prostitute never heard that, ever.
Like Ofnuts, "cagole" in Marseille is a vulgar girl, especially when she speaks (we would say "when she opens her mouth", voluntarily not using the word "speak"
Same for "passer a la casserole" nothing to do with prostitution, sex yes, but it's not about prostitution, and we can use both wording in the same sentence "cette cagole va passer a la casserole")

This is madness...
Few questions, though
Did someone check if inside that pile there are mussels or are they just glued on a circular carton or whatnot, and inside it's empty?
Where come from the mussels, from a restaurant back trash or was it his personal consumption?
I hope that for this price the mussels are well cleaned and there are no residual animal in the shells, did someone check the "smell"
