Woman turns husband hunt into art project

LEEDS, England, March 22 (UPI) -- A 23-year-old British college student says she's incorporating her hubby hunt into a work of art called The Husband Project.

Alex Humphrey says her efforts to find a spouse will form part of her degree from Leeds College of Art and Design. The project is scheduled to end in three months with Humphrey including her marriage certificate in her final art presentation, reported The Sunday Times of London.

"I don't want to wake up when I'm 30 and think: oh my God, I'm on my own," said Humphrey, noting she is "looking for a relationship, not just a shag."

Humphrey narrowed responses from more than 150 men to a shortlist of 10 men with a sense of humor and as tall or taller than Humphrey.

Her first date with Adam Mussett, 27, a student from Greenwich University went well. Still, Humphrey said she will date all 10 and may even fly to Chicago, where one prospect lives.

Mussett said he, too, had a good time but understands "if you go to a shop you don't buy the first thing you see."
