Painted in 2018, Ducking and Diving is a bold and explosive portrayal of the break from the starting gates by acclaimed equestrian artist Alasdair Banks. Rendered in frenetic strokes of crimson, neon green, and cobalt, the composition captures the electric chaos of racehorses and riders as they jostle for early advantage. Banks’ signature abstract expressionist style transforms the moment into a riot of colour and motion—an adrenaline-charged visual metaphor for instinct, urgency, and the split-second decisions that define the race ahead.
