ORIGINS OF ALTERING AND DEFINITIONS
From the late 1950s such terms as ‘thrown and altered’, ‘thrown and assembled’ and ‘thrown and stacked’ – or combinations of all three – began to be used to describe
forms that had begun life on the wheel.
These may have been part of a desire to shake off the shackles of utility and the associated perceptions of lower aesthetic value.In one sense, almost all pottery could be described as thrown and altered as most thrown forms undergo some kind of manipulation.
