Agile Manifesto and Vige

September 29, 2021

The Agile manifesto meets Vige, a client of mine wanted to get an illustration of the manifesto so now I felt that I should turn that work into a Vige-version as well. From an illustration perspective the challenge with this is to select what to “make fun of” in order to get a tension in the illustration. I decided that the tension should be between what is valued OVER something else. So even if the right side have value in this illustration it gets a bit of a beating. Let’s say that I tried to illustrate a situation where you overdo it some what.

If you want a high res-version of the picture you can find it in my Free material area on this page.

The value “Individuals and interactions over processes and tools”: on the left, three figures talk together; on the right, one figure reads a document and another struggles with a machine.

The value “Working software over comprehensive documentation”: on the left, a figure drives a car and another holds a phone; on the right, a figure falls asleep over piles of books.

The value “Customer collaboration over contract negotiation”: on the left, one figure hands over a gift and receives a bag of money; on the right, two figures argue over a contract.

The value “Responding to change over following a plan”: on the left, two figures in tall grass point the way; on the right, two figures stare at a map.
